Morocco offers unlimited landscape scenery and the intensity of light among other reasons.

A lot of people trying to recall names of films made in Morocco would come up with CASABLANCA, in fact H. Bogart never set foot in Morocco, the film was made in Hollywood, the same applies to M. Dietrich in MOROCCO and B. Hope and B. Crosby in THE ROAD TO MOROCCO. Now That we've dealt with the red herrings we can proceed. THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH was made by Hitchcock in 1955 and stared J, Stewart.
However, film makers' love affair with Morocco goes back much further. In 1897 Louis Lumière made: LE CHEVALIER MAROCAIN .
In 1975 J. Huston made: THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING .
In 1985 M. Douglas starred in: THE JEWEL OF THE NILE .
In 1999 B. Fraser starred in: THE MUMMY .
In 2005 R. Scott made: KINGDOM OF HEAVEN .
In 2007 P. Greengrass made: THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM .
In Morocco it seems as though as far as film makers are concerned anything goes as long as there is a cheque waving in the air.
