One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961)

Where One Hundred and One Dalmatians says it takes place, and where it was really shot.

No camera ever filmed this one: it is hand-drawn, yet the story names real ground, a house by Regent's Park and a farm in Suffolk.

Scenes and places

The film does not name this park, so no real place can be pinned to it.

The townhouse near Regent's Park

Cruella de Vil visits and takes a keen interest in Perdita's coming puppies. When fifteen puppies arrive she offers a large sum, and Roger firmly refuses, so she swears revenge. Weeks later two burglars steal the litter.
