Most of Looper was filmed in New Orleans and nearby Thibodaux, Louisiana (and some in not so nearby Shanghai China).
Rian Johnson has said that he stole Joe's character arc from Rick's arc in Casablanca, so it's fitting that he also borrows La Belle Aurore from Casablanca as well. It's the name of the café in Paris where Rick and Ilsa last see each other before the Nazis invade.
The exterior for the club La Belle Aurore where the loopers hang out in Looper was shot on Rampart St.
