One-Shot Wednesday

On Wednesdays, guess the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. 

Ocean's 11

Only a fraction of Steven Soderburgh's Ocean's 11 filmed in Chicago. The scene below introduces Matt Damon's character, Linus. We see him first riding the 'L,' then walking underneath the tracks, and finally at Emmitt's Pub at 495 N. Milwaukee Ave.


Sadly, the Irish pub closed in 2022. But you can see it onscreen in Oceans 11, Uncle Buck, Only the Lonely, and most recently, Justified: City Primeval.

Welcome to One-Shot Wednesday!

Think you’re a Chicago screen buff?

On Wednesdays, we post one still from a movie or TV show filmed or set in the Windy City. Your mission? Guess the title!
