The city where John Doe commits his series of murders in David Fincher's Seven is never named, but it was filmed mostly in and around Los Angeles. The sloth victim's apartment was in the building of the Giant Penny store, a five-and-dime on the corner of Broadway and 3rd Street in downtown LA that was closed in 1998.

David Hemmings spots Vanessa Redgrave here at 151 Regent Street near the end of Antonioni's Blowup. It's a great bit of editing as she just vanishes into the crowd.

In Antonioni's Blowup, David Hemmings photographs the two lovers (and accidentally a murder) here in Maryon Park.

Maryon Park is also the location of the tennis courts where the mimes play imaginary tennis at the end of the movie. The mimes are raucous and rowdy while in the jeep and are only creepy and mime-like once the mime tennis match starts. FYI this movie is better while on drugs.
