A Spirited Debate Over the Best Movies Filmed in SF
Thursday, 18 December, 2025
San Francisco is an iconic looking city, so it's a little surprising that more movies aren't shot here.

Olivia discusses some of the best ones with San Francisco Chronicle writer Peter Hartlaub and resident KQED movie obsessive, Carly Severn.
