Is there a movie shown in American theater that was from Canada or Australia?

Question

Like you know how all movies that go to theater here in America are either from here or United Kingdom. What about these other two english speaking countries such as Canada and Australia. Has there ever been a movie shown in theater here in U.S from Canada or Australia? Do they make theater movies at all? just wondering

Answer 1

Canada is actually the spot for a lot of city scenes in movies that are about US metro areas. They use Canada because it is cheaper and less red tape to go through. Probably less payoffs and behind the back handshakes over there. However, it seems like your question may be about Canadian or Australian based film companies t hat show movies in America.

Answer 2

Some do a loop - Whitehorse (Yukon) up to Dawson City, where the big Gold Rush happened, and the town hasn't changed. Over to the US to Fairbanks, and then back down the Alaska Highway to Whitehorse again. Loads of fabulous scenery, wilderness, mountains, bears, etc., and history as well. If you want just Canada, a trip from Vancouver to Calgary, Edmonton, and back (through the National parks) is fabulous. Great scenery, and lots to see. For history, head East - Quebec City is as close to a European city as you can get in North America. Historic, romantic, and beautiful. It depends a lot on what you want to see and do.
