Every Wednesday, join us in guessing the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. Visit our archive to play the ones you missed! One-Shot Wednesday On Wednesdays, guess the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. The Fugitive (1993) In The Fugitive (1993), Harrison Ford plays Dr. Richard Kimble, a Chicago surgeon wrongfully convicted of murdering his wife. Kimble escapes custody and sets out to prove his innocence while being relentlessly pursued by U.S. Marshal Samuel Gerard, played by Tommy Lee Jones. Filmed in iconic Chicago locations like City Hall, Daley Plaza, and (the former) Cook County Hospital, as well as rural areas in North Carolina, The Fugitive combines suspense with a vivid sense of place: that place, of course, Chicago. The above screenshot is a close-up of a book called Atlas of Limb Prosthetics: Surgical and Prosthetic Principles by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. In this scene, Dr. Kimble has rented an apartment from a Polish woman and her son (see clip below). Here, Kimble plans to hide from the police while researching the one-armed man that, he believes, killed his wife. In this shot, Kimble is asleep with the medical book he's been reading resting on his chest. In The Fugitive , the book Atlas of Limb Prosthetics functions as a fictional prop. That said, it is an actual book , first published in 1981, aimed at orthopaedic surgeons. Four editions of the book have been published since 1981, the most recent in 2023 . The prop department for The Fugitive secured the most recent edition at the time, the second (1992), for Harrison Ford to hold while his character naps. Welcome to One-Shot Wednesday!

One-Shot Wednesday On Wednesdays, guess the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. Beginning of the End Beginning of the End (1957) centers on a scientist who uses radiation to grow gigantic vegetables, which are then eaten by locusts that transform into enormous creatures and attack Chicago. The movie was produced during the early boom years of American science-fiction cinema. In this screenshot, giant locusts (actually male grasshoppers from Waco, Texas) begin their attack by crawling up Chicago’s Wrigley Building . For this scene, the movie’s director/producer/special effects coordinator, Bert I. Gordon , planned to build miniatures of Chicago landmarks for the grasshoppers to climb on. But he found it too costly. Instead, Gordon used still photographs, filming the grasshoppers moving across these images. Despite being criticized for its poor special effects, Beginning of the End , some critics argue, has a certain charm that makes it watchable. Check out the full film below.

One-Shot Wednesday On Wednesdays, guess the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. Ferris Bueller’s Day Off In this medium-long shot from Ferris Bueller's Day Off , the school secretary, Grace (Edie McClurg), pulls multiple pencils out of her hair. With each reach, McClurg acts surprised, as though the No. 2 pencils are growing there like weeds. At the end of the scene, she’s (hilariously) sniffing Liquid Paper at her desk. Director John Hughes recalls McClurg’s “very sprayed hairdo,” which he thought would be fun to stick stuff in during filming. “There was a lot more than pencils in there, by the way,” he tells us in 1992.

One-Shot Wednesday On Wednesdays, guess the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. Flatliners Flatliners (1990) stars Kiefer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, William Baldwin, Oliver Platt, and Kevin Bacon. The movie follows five medical students conducting clandestine near-death experiments and was filmed at Loyola University Chicago between October 1989 and January 1990. The character in this close-up shot is Winnie Hicks (Kesha Reed ), a girl Kevin Bacon’s character, David, bullied in grade school. While flatlining, he is confronted by the 8-year-old girl on an ‘L’ train . She taunts him the way he taunted her, with ample amounts of vulgarity and hate. Watch the full scene below. Later in the movie, David visits Winnie , now an adult and played by Kimberly Scott . He apologizes for the way he tormented her, and she accepts his apology. Despite her small role, Scott received sigificant praise from film critics. One even says her “well-played, genuinely poignant scene with Bacon” balances Flatliners’ repetition and excess (The Monitor , 10 Aug 1990). Welcome to One-Shot Wednesday!

One-Shot Wednesday On Wednesdays, guess the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. While You Were Sleeping This screenshot of a Christmasy Chicago "L" station is from the 1995 romantic comedy While You Were Sleeping . The movie follows a lonely Chicago transit worker named Lucy (Sandra Bullock) who pretends to be the fiancée of a comatose man (Peter Gallagher), only to find herself entangled in a web of misunderstandings with him and his family. (It's a cute movie, and it helped catapult Bullock into movie stardom!) Today's #OneShotWed is an establishing shot. It shows us where Lucy works as a token collector and jumps onto the tracks to save the life of Gallagher's character. The scene was filmed at Chicago's Randolph/Wabash “L” station, but it is no longer there. Shortly after Randolph/Wabash closed in 2017, its replacement, Washington/Wabash, opened. You'll recognize the new station when you see its canopies intending to echo the waves of nearby Lake Michigan . Welcome to One-Shot Wednesday! Think you’re a Chicago screen buff?

- The Weather Man | Movies Filmed in Chicago | One-Shot Wednesdays
Every Wednesday, join us in guessing the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. Visit our archive to play the ones you missed! One-Shot Wednesday On Wednesdays, guess the Chicago-based movie or television show from one screenshot. The Weather Man The Weather Man is a 2005 American comedy-drama film directed by Gore Verbinski and starring Nicolas Cage. The film follows the story of David Spritz (Cage), a local television weatherman in Chicago who is going through a mid-life crisis. In the film, people throw food—like McDonald's pies!—at David to ridicule him and illustrate their dissatisfaction with his job as a weatherman. Perhaps the food-throwing also symbolizes the public's own discontent with life in general? 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! You've already seen this week’s image above. If you're feeling nostalgic, explore the full archive of past challenges to keep the fun rolling. Psst: you're on screenshot: 84 Access Archive
