This delightful movie was filmed in the Czech Republic at Karlovy Vary, the famous spa town. It is said that in the 1300s, Holy Roman Emperor, Bohemian Kng Charles IV, was injured while hunting nearby and was healed at the natural hot springs there. The film features the historic Grandhotel Pupp (Pupp.cz/Eng) founded by Georg Pupp in 1701. This family name was recently recovered from the communist era name of Grandhotel Moscow. Becherovka, a medicinal digestive liqueur, was developed there by a local physician. Many U.S. liquor stores carry it. The Karlovy Vary International Film Festival held there is one of the oldest in the world.
