Locations
Block Drug Store (corner of 2nd Ave & E 6th St)
In movie
Scene where Ann is shown within a recognizable slice of Manhattan street life near a corner pharmacy, using the ordinary storefront and intersection as a grounded “daily routine” environment before the narrative shifts away from the city and office life.
Real
Scene was shot at a real corner drugstore storefront in the East Village, a dense, walkable Manhattan neighborhood with constant street activity, mixed-use buildings, and heavy foot traffic. The intersection setting provides an everyday New York backdrop that visually reinforces routine and urban pace.
North River, New York (Adirondacks area)
In movie
Scene where Ann’s escape into undisturbed Adirondack nature is portrayed through remote surroundings associated with North River, emphasizing isolation, natural sounds, and distance from urban schedules, serving as the film’s primary contrast to her cubicle-bound life.
Real
Scene was shot in and around the small Adirondack hamlet of North River, a quiet area near forested land and the Hudson River corridor, known for rugged nature, sparse development, and access to outdoor terrain. The landscape naturally supports themes of solitude and separation from city stress.
