Are the movie events taking place in the UK?
I know that The Best Offer has been shot in Italy and Central Europe, but the events shown in the movie seem to be taking place in an English-speaking country. I'm wondering if this was supposed to be United Kingdom. Is there anything in the movie or external sources that confirms or contradicts that?
Best Answer
This is one interpretation:
Shot all over northern Italy, Vienna and Prague, the film’s precise setting is deliberately left a blank. As in the director’s A Pure Formality and The Unknown Woman, the anonymous location “somewhere in Europe” makes it easier to accept an international cast speaking English.
See: this review. I cannot verify its authority but it seems plausible to me.
