Veering from the topic of tourist sites, a good example of the pleasure of being "in the know" about film locations and how that works with the identity of a place comes to mind from _The Graduate_. It's not so much the fact that the film takes place at Berkeley, but knowledge about what is and is not accurate that people love to make sure you know. So as an adolescent it was kind of a measure of coolness to know, and let others know you knew, that Dustin Hoffman was going the wrong direction on the bay bridge when he was supposedly going to see Katharine Ross at Berkeley, or that shots supposedly of the Berkeley campus are really of Stanford. It also always sort of seemed to me like a measure of non-natives showing that they were becoming Californians, Northern Californians, if they could identify these things in conversation.
