List of films set in Portugal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This list is of foreign films set in Portugal, at least in part. In the early 1940s, Portugal was the setting for over a dozen films, depicting the city as a place of "international intrigue".[1] In subsequent decades, the trope of Lisbon as a city of espionage and foreign conflicts continued to endure, although films started to branch beyond this genre from the 1950s onward.[1]
