Named here by Georgetown’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Georgetown, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

No Way Out 1987

“No Way Out (1987, featured a Georgetown Metro stop as a plot device, even though no such station exists; the subway station shots were filmed in Baltimore, Maryland.” Wikipedia
