Not one mention of Bad Luitenant: Port of Call New Orleans?

The movie is gold.

The Firm
Walking Tall
Silence of the Lambs had one scene... does that count?

Oh Yeah.. The Blind Side... That would actually classify as favorite movie set in the high school you graduated from (albeit 20 years prior)

Which they changed everything about Oher's high school, coaches, etc all the details. That was because it was a whitewashing of the Albert Means fiasco with a Christian twist.

Its hard to tell because most Alabama themed movies are shot out of state. Damn Alabama legislature never got around to passing the film tax credits other states have. But we didn't get a GOP legislature until 2010.
