If you've never taken a virtual Chicago Movies Tour with Kelli Marshall, you're in for a real treat! Kelli's contagious enthusiasm and seemingly endless knowledge of the film industry and Chicago's rich history always combine to offer an unforgettable experience. Her latest virtual tour offered the usual high number of fascinating tidbits and revelations surrounding the background and removal of three controversial Christopher Columbus statues. Like all of her well-organized presentations, Columbus Controversies - Chicago Statues and a Hollywood Makeover left me better informed and eager to learn more about movies and their connections to Chicago.

Kelli's presentation on Batman was very interesting, with film clips and fun facts about how the movie was made in Chicago, the stunts they used, the locations and areas they used, very informative.

Kelli is a great tour guide! I enjoyed the Old Joliet Prison tour very much (note: this was NOT the "haunted" prison tour--that is completely different), especially learning about all the movies and TV shows that were filmed here ("Blues Brothers," etc.).

I have been a patron of Chicago Movie Tours for over four years now, and I have always found Kelli's tours to be entertaining, engaging and informative! I always look forward to every tour!

Kelli managed to tie 3 unique Chicago themes together in a very well researched and presented 75-minute tour. You may have never been on this select part of the U of C campus, but now you'll find yourself drawn to the outsized and outstanding Lorado Taft offerings. Kelli managed to include as many visual aids as one could handle while walking. I also appreciated the size and energy of our group.

I loved this tour. Kelli is an informative and fun guide to both the movie and the Art Institute. I took some great photos and have some great memories. Also, she has great taste in T-shirts!

This is one of the best tours I’ve ever been on! Some friends and I took the tour of Union Station film history and loved every second of it! I’ll definitely be going on another tour in the future :)
