On The Beach (1959) FILMING LOCATIONS PART 1

REEL STREETS OF MELBOURNE - EPISODE 5
From January to March in 1959, Hollywood came to Melbourne to shoot the film On The Beach. It was directed by Stanley Kramer and appearing in the film was Gregory Peck, Ava Gardner, Anthony Perkins, Fred Astaire and Donna Anderson.
Based on the book by Nevil Shute about the end of the world. Melbourne is the last place on Earth to inhabit life but the radiation cloud is approaching.
I've set out on a special project to visit every location where Stanley Kramer shot this classic sci-fi. Since there are so many, I've divided this into two parts.
Part 2 will be available in October or November.
