Manhunter is one of my favorite films of the 80s. Mann is always on point in his use of locations and buildings. I have made screenshots of this spellbinding building too, so it came back to me in a second when I saw it here.

And here is the first one from me. Keeping it with buildings for first pic.

Wrong again. But I adore The Sheltering Sky. Local cinema held a few screenings of it last month, but sadly I missed it.

No, it isn't Don't Look Now.

I'll post the all revealing pic if no one gets it until evening.

I checked Letterboxd and some of you have seen it.

You're right, @liquidnature !

Yes, Natasha Richardson is breathtakingly beautiful in this film. Also, I liked the cinematography by Dante Spinotti, a great DoP.

yes, remember liking that one a lot.

I haven't garnered a big enough catalogue of screenshots yet to make this worthwhile, so with this victory I defer back to you Silga, post another one if you'd like!
