Hey folks,
This may seem like a pedestrian idea, but I am supposed to help out with a list of films that center on Chicago, from the mainstream to the less so. Could you send me any suggestions you might have that would add to the below list? The turnaround time is just a day or two, so if you get this after tomorrow (Saturday), forget it.
1---The Blues Brothers.
2---The Untouchables
3---High Fidelity.
4---Ferris Bueller's Day Off
5---The Fugitive (PG-13), 127 minutes. Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones, and that drain pipe
6---North by Northwest (1959)
7---Flatliners (1989)
8---Streets of Fire (1983)
9---I-Robot (2003)
10---The Road to Perdition (2001)
11---Love and Action in Chicago (1989)
12---The Sting
13---Hoop Dreams
Thanks!
Leo
