* Surprisingly, the film's Wikipedia page says 'Principal photography began on October 30, 2018, in Boston, Massachusetts and wrapped on December 20, 2018' [https://t.co/jPrvcbtgbC, citing references, and exterior / interior locations] - as its on-screen look / feel belies that— THE AGENT APSLEY #ScrapUniversalCredit #JC4PM2019 (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) December 31, 2019
¹ Probably Ransom Drysdale (Chris Evans) refers to Benoit Blanc's (Craig's) 'drawl', and mentions Kentucky, but did Craig sound Tennessee or Louisiana ? (Still, scene to scene, Ana de Armas' accent wandered far more as Marta Cabrera³.)— THE AGENT APSLEY #ScrapUniversalCredit #JC4PM2019 (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) December 31, 2019
² Steve Yedlin [https://t.co/3vaPjIO6dH]
³ Harlan Thrombey's (Christopher Plummer's) largely unconcerned family casually refer to her as at least Paraguayan, Uruguayan and Brazilian (which has misled some, with questions about the film, not to doubt their sincerity, but to ask where she is 'really from')— THE AGENT APSLEY #ScrapUniversalCredit #JC4PM2019 (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) December 31, 2019

Did spot that
It's part and parcel of the film-making whether character-presentations cohere (as well as location-scouting for a suitably quirky interior). isn't it ?
Maybe just me...
