Before it was mandated in Hollywood that all new summer blockbusters feature a scene of a giant computer generated robot/lizard/swarm of grumpy armed chimps trashing the Golden Gate Bridge, some of the best movies in cinematic history featured San Francisco.
Writing a list of the greatest movies ever shot in San Francisco would be fun. I could wax lyrical about Gene Hackman's lonely paranoia as he watches Union Square from his hotel room in The Conversation, James Stewart's mazey slow pursuit of Kim Novak from Nob Hill to Downtown in Hitchcock's Vertigo, Clint Eastwood's shocking vigilante '70s justice in Dirty Harry or even the misunderstood neo-noir brilliance of Basic Instinct.
Instead let's talk about Nic Cage invoking Zeus's butthole on Alcatraz and a geriatric James Bond scaling the Golden Gate Bridge.
Here's my very unofficial list of movies that get San Francisco very wrong.
Nine Months (1995)
