San Francisco's hills, fog and the Golden Gate Bridge have anchored screen classics for decades - from Vertigo and the Bullitt car chase to The Matrix and The Godfather. 66 titles in our database map to the city and the wider Bay Area, which is also the animation heartland of Pixar (Coco, WALL·E, Toy Story 3).
Cable cars, Alcatraz, the Painted Ladies of Alamo Square and the crooked curves of Lombard Street are among the most recognisable backdrops in film. Most are easy to reach on foot or by cable car - the map shows exactly where each scene was shot.
