Quite a few movies are filmed in Toronto. Rarely does Toronto actually play Toronto but more often New York or Chicago in these pictures. Still, Torontonians like myself know it's Toronto and enjoy seeing our fair city play a role in many a major motion picture.
So many films are shot here that a friend of mine spent last summer working security for the filming of Resident Evil: Apocalypse and last year's winner of the Best Picture Oscar at The Academy Awards, Chicago, was filmed here.
It's time I document my favourite ten films filmed in Toronto. As you'll see from my list, some of these flicks were filmed elsewhere as well, but all were at least partly filmed in Toronto according to the Internet Movie Database.
- The Boondock Saints

- Bowling For Columbine
- A Christmas Story
