    I would like to nominate THE VERDICT as the greatest of Boston movies.

      In FEB 2005, the Boston Globe Sunday Magazine had this excellent article on the "Best" AND "Worst" Boston Movies.

      I think that they got it right!

        Eddie Coyle is my favorite Boston movie. Altered States had some nice set-ups in Beacon Hill.
        I would rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

          John Sturges' 1950 "Mystery Street" is a good
          noirish
          (John Alton) murder-mystery shot on location in Boston and Cambridge.

            For me, easily 1 of the worlds 10 best movies shot anywherethe epitome of 1970s Americana.
            what ails most madmen is realitys grasp or escape, a paralysis of analysis

              The use of practical locations in the seedier areas of Boston gave this film a beautifully gritty and substantial authenticity.
              You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
