On our first walk across the Charles Bridge headed towards the Malastrana from Stare Mesto I looked off towards the banks of the Vltava River and was overwhelmed with deja vu. It only took me a moment to realize I was looking at the very site where Kristin Scott Thomas met her untimely end in Mission Impossible. The building that served as the location for the embassy party where Thomas and fellow secret agent Tom Cruise were in attendance is adjacent to the Charles Bridge on the Malastrana side of the river. It is possible to walk right up to the wrought-iron gate through which Kristin Scott Thomas received her fatal attack.
