GPS position of garages

Maybe Drakkar, it's this location, I'm not sure but there is only this type of garage in Luleä, not in Valligby nor Blackberg nor Boden but it's only what I can see with Google streets (thanks Google !).

Position GPS: 65°36'04,84 N / 22°07'40,68 E ; photos date of sept 2009.

I think the buiding is adding by photo editing like candy's store. There are another garages around but they are new, maybe restored.

But there are problems, I'm not sure:

- top of garage in the film is higher
- color is not the same
- number of pieces of wood are not the same, 19 in film 23 or 24 in reality

If you look at Google street you can see garages are smaller than that, in fact this one is the higher I saw.

Maybe when someone will go there and it could take photos for compare differents doors of garages, if there are not repaint. On Google street it's not possible to watch at right. I think doors can say if it's there or not.

For me, there is a problem with connection: red color, and another problem is the position of the light: blue color.

The colors might have been edited, and or it could have been painted red since the shooting :)
Great find!!

I did the same as you, poked around with google streetwise, and ran into the same doubts as you did, always something that wasn't quite right. The building in the background looks like cgi, but the trees to the left looks real. And they're quite large.

I think the place is real, trees are real but garages are added later like the building. Around the parking there are a lot of trees where scene can be filmed. Maybe they mounted this image because there was a lot of car in the parking, car of 2007 not 1982. It's possible to watch snow behind blue car, it's not usual to do this, maybe these trees are trees between parking and big road in front of the garage.

The building is added behind hospital too, look at images :

and they forget it (night scene):

I'm at Lulea now, they repainted these garages, I could not say if it was these garages or not.

Cool, I've yet to visit the town. If substantial part of the garage scene is cgi, one could always discuss whether there really is a location to visit.
