It’s no secret that Toronto is a major movie-making hub. Some of the best films of all time were shot on these very city streets. But have you ever perused a collection of shots featuring locations from around town? One Instagram user will help you do just that.

The account by the name of @MovieLocate is dedicated to showcasing all the movie locations this city’s got to offer. They’ve put together an incredible collection of side-by-side shots from classic movies next to their Toronto site. You can see what’s different and what’s the same between the movie-version and real-life locations.
