NEW YORK-- Everyone loves the movies. They're a great escape, just like traveling. People obsess about cinema just as much as they obsess about exploring a new city. The experts at Museyon Guides recognize this, and today announce the launch of a detailed anthology of color guidebooks authored by experts in the field. At last, a travel guide series that truly understands what film lovers need!

There is simply no other curated guidebook on the market like Film + Travel: Traveling the World Through Your Favorite Movies ($15.95, 168 pages). The three titles are: Film + Travel Europe; Film + Travel North America, South America; and Film + Travel Asia, Oceania, Africa. Go to the parking garage at the University of Melbourne and follow the footsteps of Mel Gibson in Mad Max, or head to the post office on the island of Procida as seen in Il Postino to try channeling Chilean poet Pablo Neruda. This is not just a guidebook, it's a timeless experience.

Key elements that distinguish this exciting new series include:

* Each book contains hundreds of vivid, color photographs that jump off the pages * Full film index includes a multitude of movies: Europe references 199 films; North America, South America references 198 films; Asia, Oceania, Africa references 139 films * Meticulously researched and curated by prestigious film reviewers, producers, directors, historians and location specialists * Only guidebooks to offer a range of global thematic tours * Mix and match these tours to create unforgettable trips with months' worth of excursions * Original cover illustrations by award-winning graphic novelist Jillian Tamaki of New York Times, Entertainment Weekly and SPIN * Supplies nuts-and-bolts information that film lovers need when preparing for their journeys or the perfect companions for the armchair traveler
