If you tell the internet your favorite San Francisco film is “So I Married an Axe Murderer,” you’ll get two responses.
One response is mockery. What of any of the Hitchcock classics shot in San Francisco? Ever heard of “Bullitt”?
“You’re fired for bad taste, no class,” one person wrote to me.

The story behind the 'Star Trek IV' punk on bus: Kirk Thatcher Q&A

Kirk Thatcher and Leonard Nimoy star in "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home."Paramount Studios 1986
The “punk on bus” is the real hero of the 1986 movie “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.”
The Muni-riding rebel gives William Shatner the middle finger — did any actor in the “Trek” universe deserve it more? — on the Golden Gate Bridge. He shares his art with his fellow passengers. (It turns out the punk wrote that “I Hate You” song playing on the boom box.) And he created, with apologies to the “Bullitt” car chase, the most purely crowd-pleasing moment in San Francisco movie history.

Nailbiting misses and crazy-brave driving: 10 of the best movie car chases


The thing about motion pictures is that they move. Perhaps that’s a bit obvious, but sometimes the simple things are worth noting. Film excels at capturing objects and people in motion, and we react very strongly to the kinetic nature of the medium. That’s why we get off on both action movies and musicals – the distance between, say, Bruce Lee kicking six guys into their next incarnations and Fred & Ginger cutting a rug for our entertainment is actually pretty small.
And then there are car chases, which up the stakes by the simple act of motorising the motion. Not only are we excited by the action in a car chase, on some level we also appreciate the sheer craft involved – all those big machines and expensive cameras working in congress to produce a visual spectacle and hopefully not maim any of the crazy-brave stunt drivers actually behind the wheel. A good car chase is its own kind of beauty. Here then, are 10 of the most beautiful.
