Yanks Filming Locations. Then (1979) and Now (2024) Movie Locations.

In 1978, a number of locations across the North of England were used for filming the 1979 released movie Yanks, an early film for Richard Gere.

The film is about American troops arriving in their millions across the United Kingdom to support the nation during the Second World War.

Location footage was filmed across Keighley, Stalybridge, and even in Llandudno.

This video looks at just some of the locations today and how they have changed 45 years later.
