These three photographs were sent to us by Liz, UK. A friend of a colleague of hers was in Krabi while they were filming 'The Beach' there. In this picture you can see Leonardo in a tuk tuk taxi for a scene at the start of the movie. The camera is on the back of a pick-up truck. Photograph by Jane Boyce.

There was a large crowd watching this scene being shot. Leonardo's bodyguard (in green shirt) is daring tourists to take pictures! Photograph by Jane Boyce.

Principal photography for The Beach took place in Thailand between January and April 1999. Although the film-makers were anxious to stop people watching or taking pictures they couldn't as many of the locations were on public land.
