Locations Used in Crime Thriller / Black Comedy Hybrids

These are locations from the brilliant film 'lock stock and two smoking barrels' which is a fantastic crime thriller/black comedy. it is set in urban east London and these quite run down looking buildings show this.


This is a location from the film Goodfellas which is another crime thriller/Black comedy. it is set in New York, Manhattan which is a typical gangster location.

The urban run down look again gives a shifty, shady look which goes perfectly with the crime theme of the film.







This is the famous Diner from pulp fiction. it has the classic 50s look despite the film being set in the 90s.

I think it is a clever setting because it gives gangster connotations and allows the film to make references to other film stars like Marilyn Monroe.
