Wicker Park: The Movie

Wicker Park: The MovieIn Wicker Park, Josh Hartnett stars as an investment banker who moves back to the titular Chicago neighborhood to recover from heartbreak. This plan is foiled when he becomes infatuated with a woman he believes to be his love. Hmm, I think I liked this movie better when it was called Vertigo. You'll have to wait until September to play "Spot the hipster" on the big screen, but you can catch the trailer now at Yahoo! Movies.

Other Chicago movies of note that Chicagoist recommends: High Fidelity (check Natasha Gregson Wagner's odd pronunciation of "Double Door"), Love Jones (key scenes in the late lamented Ciral's Tiki Lounge in Hyde Park), Ferris Beuller's Day Off (a good movie to tape if you plan to play hooky one day -- not that we would know from personal experience).
