This engaging Kevin Costner vehicle, complete with trick ending, was filmed around Washington DC, actually in the foyer and corridors of the Pentagon, though of course, most of this secure facility was reconstructed in the studio.

The party, where Tom Farrell (Costner) first meets politician's mistress, the soon-to-be-murdered Susan Attwell (Sean Young), is at the Omni Shoreham Hotel, 2500 Calvert Street NW in Rock Creek Park, to the northwest of the city.

The foot chase takes Farrell to the ëGeorgetown Subwayí. Fine, except that the DC suburb of Georgetown isnít on a subway line.

The station complex is actually the Georgetown Park Mall (recognise it as the scene of a major shoot-out in True Lies?), M Street at Wisconsin Avenue. The fancy green and gold design seems clearly to have been inspired by LAís stunning Bradbury Building (Sebastianís home in Blade Runner).

The house of Defence Secretary David Brice (Gene Hackman), where Farrell witnesses the murder, stood on South Arlington Ridge Road near Pentagon City, but has now gone.
