United States Capitol is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 5 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
“Thus Washington, D.C., as depicted in the movie keeps well-known buildings such as the Capitol and the Washington Monument, as well as a section of modern buildings on the other side of the Potomac River.”

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names United States Capitol as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

- The French Connection 1971
- Mr. Smith Goes to Washington 1939

State of Play
2009
“Filming took place on various streets in Washington, D.C., including the U Street Corridor, and at "practically every major landmark", including outside the headquarters of the World Bank on Pennsylvania Avenue, around Capitol Hill, at the Supreme Court building, outside the Library of Congress, and at the Washington Monument.” Wikipedia
Set here, per Wikipedia
Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in United States Capitol, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.

“The second level, along with the Darkside boss fight, takes place in Washington, D.C. in front of the United States Capitol.” Wikipedia
