Corrected entry: Hannibal's final victim in the movie is supposed to be in Melville, Saskatchewan, and he is told it is near Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. These two cities are 356km apart, and about four hours drive away, longer in the 1950's. This is further distance apart than Paris to Marseilles, France, where most of the movie took place. Also, Melville is surrounded by farmland and fields, not the forest depicted in the movie. The Prairies near Melville are pretty much barren of trees.

Correction: There are only two cities "near" Melville - Regina & Saskatoon. Roughly the same size, Regina is a little closer, but Saskatoon is a better known name - especially to someone from out of the country. The scene takes place IN Melville, not in the prairies near it. And there are woods around most small towns in this part of the country (the sign says "Hamlet of Melville", so it's very small!).

Correction: I am from Melville - and it definitely did not look like this in the 1950s. Sorry. But prairie is correct. That means no trees as is depicted in the movie. Melville is too far south to have that many trees. Farmland is all you would see, and trees around acreages and farms. Also - Melville is near Saskatoon when you consider that they are in Europe when they are talking about it.
