maryon park

from blowup posted in movies by chewing_the_scenery

In Antonioni's Blowup, David Hemmings photographs the two lovers (and accidentally a murder) here in Maryon Park.

Maryon Park is also the location of the tennis courts where the mimes play imaginary tennis at the end of the movie. The mimes are raucous and rowdy while in the jeep and are only creepy and mime-like once the mime tennis match starts. FYI this movie is better while on drugs.
