There's an old hotel in Chicago, the Blackstone (Michigan & Balbo?), that has cool elevators, but only for the movies that were filmed in them/at the hotel. "The Untouchables" (and it's infamous writing-on-the-wall-with-blood scene) was one of them, although I haven't watched the movie since I stayed at the hotel. I remember a plaque on the wall listing a half-dozen other films.

PS - Appropriate theme music for this hobby: Royal Crown Revue's "Elevator Operator." Good tune
