Miranda beach...., east coast or west coast?


Looks like east coast with the "ocean breezes" remark , but I'm on vacation in Sarasota on the west coast, and it really reminded me of Body Heat.l

Yr killing me.

The east coast of FLORIDA is the Atlantic ocean side.

The west coast of FLORIDA is the Gulf of Mexico side.

I was been sarcastic, now you can go use your common sense and use google or imdb and it will tell you where it was filmed

Thanks Billy, now belly up!

Fair enough question.
People are arguing like 8 year olds here.
I'd say East Coast, maybe near St Augustine or JAX.
I got involved with some lawyers there a few years ago and things are just as toxic
there vis-a-vis cops and lawyers as Body Heat 1981.

just say Gulf Coast instead of West Coast.

"A substantial portion of the film was shot in east-central Palm Beach County, Florida, including downtown Lake Worth and in the oceanside enclave of Manalapan. Additional scenes were shot on Hollywood Beach, Florida, such as the scene set in a band shell."

Old Lake Worth, FL is the downtown locale where he has his office, goes to the diner etc.
