This is then
Two excellent movies that were filmed in San Francisco way back when have web pages sussing out their filming locations: Vertigo and Bullitt. The former is more interesting to people who haven't seen the movie as it includes shot-by-shot comparisons, but the latter is just such a cool movie, yo.
Bonus link: a short explanation of the fabled zoom dolly shot invented for Vertigo. The same type of shot can also be found at the very end of David Fincher's Panic Room.
