*since neither the 1950 Poitier/Widmark nor the 1987 Costner/Hackman No Way Out are set in San Francisco I'm substituting Poitier's The Call Me MISTER Tibbs! in the number one slot...

Now this movie is like every other Bond movie in the sense that he is bouncing all around the world but where the main plot/conflict(pretty much the last half of the movie) is taking place is in Silicon Valley which is part of the southern San Fransisco Bay area.

I am an idiot. I meant the Presidio. Though I can claim exhaustion as I just finished a double shift. My apologies, people.

Good catch Holden Pike. I am giving you a rep point for that. People seem to like them.

I substituted my first answer with Time After Time, the sci fi movie with Malcolm McDowell and Mary Steenburgen. I'll leave quietly now.
