I am throwing a going away party for a family and their children.

What are some good Seattle themed movies not named Sleepless in Seattle, Hand that Rocks the Cradle, or Disclosure?

any help would be appreciated. Can be either drama/comedy

I found Singles to be pretty dull. Not that Say Anything is a masterpiece, but it has some entertainment value beyond an Alice in Chains cameo.

House of Games - Mamet's first movie. Several scenes are even filmed at the old VA hospital which is now Amazon's world HQ.

10 Things I Hate About You - this one is the absolute best for working in the sights around Seattle.

Say Anything is the greatest rom com ever made, so it is a matserpiece. And I'm not sure how one finds Signles dull, but okay. The Tom Skerrit scene alone is awesome. As is Citizen Dick.

Seattle's theme is rain. Lots of it.
