Currently watching, "The Temp (1993)" with Timothy Hutton and they had a few shots of the Memorial Coliseum and blazer fans. Mr. Holland's Opus (1995) had various locations in NE Portland. Can you guys think of other films that were made in Portland?

Just saw that Extreme Measures with Mrs. HCP the other night. OK movie, their house was about 5 blocks from us. My dad was is Mr. Holland's Opus!
First paycheck ever was as an extra in Mr. Holland's Opus($132). Our house could be seen outside the window from the music room scenes. Watched the final shot of the movie from our front steps across the street from the school.
