Abstract

ABSTRACT This study investigates the roles of movie storylines and celebrity fandom on destination image. It further considers a wide range of films and their ratings at the film level as a boundary condition to demonstrate a film-level halo effect. In essence, this study examines the cross-level moderating effect of movie rating on the relationship between tourists’ perceptions of films and destination image using a multilevel design.
