A VIEW TO A KILL | Filming Locations

Going on a tour of one of my favorite movies, “A View To A Kill”, locations all found in San Francisco.
The locations visited on this tour are:
1) Fisherman’s Wharf, a famous tourist site on the San Francisco waterfront, where James Bond makes contact with CIA agent Chuck Lee (David Yip).
2) The Transamerica Pyramid, where James Bond almost loses vital parts of his anatomy on the peak’s antenna.
3) The San Francisco City Hall, where 007 escapes a fiery trap set by Zorin (Christopher Walken).
4) The corner of Davis and California streets, one of the locations along the firetruck chase route. The chase primarily took place in the financial district.
5) The Lefty O’Doul bridge, next to Oracle Park, also known as the 3rd street bridge. It’s where 007 jumps the raising bridge, leaving his police pursuers behind on the other side.

PROTOKINO -- here's some more background on the SAN FRANCISCO LOCATIONS on 'A VIEW TO A KILL' ... as I worked as an Assistant Location Manager early on into principle photography. 1) YES -- the BENCHES were already there at FISHERMAN'S WHARF. 2) THE TRANSAMERICA BUILDING EXTERIORS was shot on a very cold day by the 2nd Unit. 3) DIRTY HARRY and also THE ENFORCER were shot INTERIOR CITY HALL. 4) THE FIRE AT CITY HALL -- was orchestrated by Oscar winning Special Effects genius and all-round Gentleman, JOHN RICHARDSON. Christopher Walken, 'MAX ZORAN' was not filmed in San Francisco at all. David Bowie was originally slated to play, 'MAX ZORAN' ... but he wanted script approval. Only a few people had that right ... Mr. Moore being one of them. Mr. Walken's scenes were shot at Pinewood. 5) THE 3RD STREET BRIDGE SEQUENCE -- was invented by the Director, John Glen whilst on a Location Scout. The Police Cars destroyed at the bridge were already junkers basically totaled in all of the month long 2nd Unit stuff and seen in what was called, 'The Market Street Chase.' 6) THE MARKET STREET CHASE -- The Fire Truck was bought used for $150K and then made 'Movie Ready' with super safety by John Richardson's Team in mind for the Stunt Drivers. It was then shipped to Pinewood Studios where they did the rear projection filming of Mr. Moore ( a Prince-!! ) and Ms. Roberts. There's more .... but I'd like to see if you're interested. D.A.

[@Protokino]

Love it. That’s the kind of amazing background info that I’m always looking for. Thanks for posting.

[@clips65]

I know this wasn't the highest grossing or best Bond film ever but the fact that Christopher Walken and Duran Duran and The Big SF are in this ( Bay Area Guy ) makes it one of my favorites!!

[@Protokino]

Me too! My favourite.

It’s a cable car or a motorized one as the turntable is several blocks away.

Where is the pumpingstation filmed

[@Protokino]

Chevron dock in San Francisco for the establishing shots and the Pinewood (England) pumping station for the interiors. Exteriors on the dock with the actors were done on a soundstage at Pinewood Studios.

[@damo5791]

I've watched about 5 of your videos just now. All very good and very good editing, cutting back and forth between the movie scene and how the location is now. I've subscribed. Look forward to future ones.

[@Protokino]

Thanks so much! I'm on a bit of a break from location videos but I have Blade Runner, Basic Instinct and Seven locations filmed, ready to edit. Currently working on my first video essay.

[@damo5791]

@@Protokino looking forward to those.

[@SuperMoeLarryCurly]

What about the main strike silver mine :)

[@Protokino]

It’s in England!

[@clips65]

San Francisco City Hall in Invasion of Body Snatchers 1978 ?

[@Protokino]

Yes, at the end!

[@bren70ssss94]

Supposedly when Roger Moore found out he was older then Tanya Roberts mother it helped him decide it was time to stop playing 007 .

[@Protokino]

Yes, I heard that too!
