In order to focus on the big positive -- We are moving to San Francisco! -- I've been compiling lists of movies and books about SF. Some I've read and seen already. The rest I'd like to read and see in the near future.
Books:
*On the Road, Jack Kerouac
*Howl, Allen Ginsberg
*A Crack in the Edge of the World, Simon Winchester
*The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, Tom Wolfe
*Tales of the Fish Patrol, Jack London
*The Maltese Falcon, Dashiell Hammett
Movies:
*So I Married an Axe Murderer, with Mike Meyers
*San Francisco, with Clark Gable (coming out on DVD in June!)
*Tales of the City, PBS miniseries
*The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill, documentary
*The Beatles: Liverpool to San Francisco, documentary
*Berkeley in the Sixties, documentary
*and good preparation for any move out to California, the American Experience episode about the Donner Party
