Not a theater review column, just the SF movies I keep circling back to after a day fixing autoclaves and a cold session at OB. Rated on how much it actually feels like my city versus Hollywood doing a fog cosplay. Spoiler: the ones shot in the Outer Sunset win every time.

SF movies worth the rewatch — 3 items
Name	Movie	Year	SF Connection	My take
1Vertigo	Vertigo	1958	Fort Point, Mission Dolores, the hills	Hitchcock nailed the vertigo-inducing hills before I ever drove a cargo van down them. Still the gold standard.
2Blue Jasmine	Blue Jasmine	2013	Ocean Beach, Mission, Sutro view	They walk Ocean Beach in a sleeveless top. Rookie move, that wind will humble you every single time.
3Harold and Maude	Harold and Maude	1971	Sutro Baths ruins	Weirdest sweetest movie I own. The Sutro Baths scene alone is worth the price of admission.
