#ErnstLubitsch loved filming #EternalLove atop Victoria Glacier at #LakeLouise in Sept 1928. Up at 5 am every day to ride donkeys & horses to set. Like #TerrenceMalick did for #DaysofHeaven 50 years later, Lubitsch waited hours for legendary Alberta Magic Light. #moviesky #stunningbackdrop #booksky

Marilyn Monroe was sewn into a new pair of skin-tight jeans for almost every scene in #RiverOfNoReturn in 1953. Here, #OttoPreminger stands over her on Bow River near where #TheRevenant was shot 60 years later. It was her first summer as a sex symbol. She was 27. #booksky #stunningbackdrop #moviesky

#frankborzage & crew all set to duck into hot springs deep in Sulphur Mountain in frigid winter of 1922 #banffnationalpark. Borzage shot #ValleyoftheSilentMen in #CanadianRockies for 3 months. Springs lit with candles every night for them after their long days of filming. #stunningbackdrop #moviesky

#BillyWilder
Jasper, Alberta. Summer 1946.
Making #EmperorWaltz - his first colour film.

An "unWilder" Viennese trifle" that "yaps at everything in sight" but ultimately "lightens the weariness of life" as the world came out of a coma after WW2. #stunningbackdrop 🎥
