Hollywood struggles to halt an exodus of film-makers

World Film Locations: San Francisco, edited by Scott Jordan Harris (Intellect Books; 128 pages; $22). The latest entry in this sharp series includes more than 40 pieces on films shot in San Francisco.
Audiences across the world, as well as many of the world’s greatest film directors – including Buster Keaton, Orson Welles, George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola, David Fincher and Steven Soderbergh – have been seduced by San Francisco. This book is the ideal escape to the city by the bay for armchair travellers and cinephiles alike 
"Scott Jordan Harris's book made me fall even deeper in love with both movies and San Francisco. When I first arrived in The Bay Area I saw every inch as a movie location, and that has never changed. The city infects you with a cinematographers eye, shooting imaginary movies with a magnificent back drop up on every corner and hill top. Thankfully, Harris has provided us with a marvelous guided tour of the inspiration many masters and lesser-known film-makers minded from Fog City, taking our journey forward with a thoughtful analysis of the past." - Ted Hope, Exectutive Director, San Francisco Film Society
