Not
surprisingly, the French authorities denied permission
for Saint Genet to use a real prison for his movie of
brutal, romantic love.
Exterior shots of the notorious
La Sante prison
in the 14th arrondissement of Paris (where Genet wrote
The Miracle of the Rose while in residence) were filmed
clandestinely from an apartment over the road.
The prison
interiors were staged on sets built above Nico Papatakisí
La Rouge Rose basement nightclub, which stood on the
rue de Rennes in Parisí Saint-Germaine-des-Pres district.
The fantasy forest scenes filmed on Jean Cocteauís estate
at Milly la Foret near Fontainebleau.
