	DVDFILE.COM: City Hall review
		The film did keep my attention and it did entertain me. The film was actually shot on location at New York's City Hall and was the first picture ever to possess actual footage of the historic building.
		City Hall is just not the kind of film that is remembered for how it looks, but the DVD does a good job of making it look good.
		The film struggled to be both a drama and a thriller, but suffered by not delivering enough of a punch to be either successfully.

	Eye Weekly - Like tofu for hot dogs - 11.06.03
		Her ideas are often sound but throughout the race, Hall has tripped on her own platform, hemming and hawing about some of the most important issues in an effort to gather votes for a campaign that's been plagued by accusations of impropriety, turnabout stances and a reliance on experience that's now sorely obsolete.
		While we believe Hall's principles are in the right place, her righteousness seems suspect in light of the shady early campaigning that drew the ire of her fellow candidates.
		On transit, Hall thinks the provincial and federal governments are the keys (although it's tough to say what effect a projected $5.6 billion provincial deficit has had on her determined optimism).

	Welcome to City Clerk's - City of Glendale, CA
		Since parking and traffic are major concerns of the City, applications are more likely to be approved for filming which does not require a significant amount of parking, is not in a potentially congested area, and/or is not near major construction projects.
		In addition, film companies are encouraged to arrange to park their equipment and vehicles in privately-owned areas as much as possible.
		However, when the application is made, based on the issues involved with the filming, the Filming Permit Coordinator will provide the applicant with an estimate of how long he or she thinks processing will take.

	City Hall The Movie. Fresno Snapshot?
		Yet, City Hall, the movie, does seem to be a film about all-too familiar politicians like some in Fresno and even in Clovis, with formidable ambitions, trying to get a handle on urban homicides, car thefts, corruption, bribery, power politics, and sexual harassment in school district offices both before and after hours.
		The casting of Al Pacino as City Hall's ambitious mayor, John Pappas, adds to one of the film's more believable aspects, right down to the fact that Pacino's Mayor Pappas can sound as much like a school administrator, preacher, or a history professor as any veteran of the local political wars.
		Early in the film, there's a scene of City Hall politicians meeting with real estate developers, and later a meeting between the mayor and real estate developers in the lobby of a Broadway theater where city planning variations are bought and paid for.

	City Hall
		For this is a film of formidable ambitions, trying to locate an anatomy of New York crime, power and politics in a many-tentacled tale of urban corruption.
		Though Calhoun is the film's narrator and shoulders the burden of unraveling its investigative plot, he never quite assumes center stage either.
		The most curious credit for ``City Hall'' is the writing team, which includes Ken Lipper (a deputy mayor of New York in the Koch administration), Paul Schrader, Nicholas Pileggi and Bo Goldman.

	Politics and the Film(syllabus)
		For example, the film City Hall (directed by Harold Becker with Al Pacino demonstrates the kinds of political deals and tradeoffs that politicians engage in to enhance their power for implementing public policy, but it also calls up the dilemmas in making such compromises that are ethically questionable, immoral or illegal.
		Films unlike studying politics in newspapers or journals are narrative and have a story line in which the observer can see how events are related and understand the cause-effect relationships.
		The films below will focus on the nature of the political personality and how he or she perceives and pursues power as a means of symbolically satisfying individual needs and goals.

	MMI Review: City Hall (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		"City Hall" is the story of a crusading New York City mayor and his go-getting, idealistic deputy.
		The press is screaming about city hall corruption, internal affairs is sniffing around, Bridget Fonda pops up and looks really perky, and the mob starts killing people.
		The directorial style is standard crime melodrama stuff; lots of extreme close-ups of nervous, sweaty faces are framed by long shots of the city, filmed at all times of the day and night.

	San Francisco City Hall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The City Hall of San Francisco California, opened in 1915, in its open space area in the city's Civic Center, is a Beaux-Arts monument to the brief "City Beautiful" movement that epitomized the high-minded American Renaissance of the period 1880-1917.
		The architect was Arthur Brown Jr., whose attention to the finishing details extended to the doorknobs and the typeface to be used in signage.
		In a curious coincidence, the new city hall in nearby San Jose has already drawn at least one pair of falcons, discovered by Mayor Ron Gonzales himself as he saw pigeon feathers descend past a window during a meeting.

	City of Petaluma, City Manager's Office
		There are a number of permits required within Sonoma County, depending on the city in which you film, county roads, state parks, county parks, Corps of Engineers, etc. If you only contact an individual permitting agency for information, you may miss out on important information about the rest of the county.
		Film permits are only a small part of the duties of these offices, and a heads up is very much appreciated.
		Depending upon the complexity and location of the filming requested in the downtown area, a notification time of up to two weeks may be required to allow the PDA sufficient time to notify affected merchants.

		This film is resplendent in its depiction of police and political depravity.
		The film begins with a lackluster conflict, the accidental shooting of a child by a drug dealer with relatives in the NY mob families who looks as if he came directly from Central Casting, and acts just as stiff.
		The central plot of the movie springs from the reaction by City Hall to this one shooting incident, as the world is (we suppose) put on temporary pause for days afterward in New York by this event.

		At least that is what I told myself as I was leaving "City Hall", Al Pacino's latest.
		Pacino is the mayor of New York trying to deal with a cop and drug dealer who not only shoot it out on the streets, but also involve an innocent child.
		When Pacino's mayor cries indignation over the deaths in the city, I felt that all politicians are essentially actors.

		One odd thing about the film is that it was filled with an unusual amount of quotes from past political leaders.
		Then we get the true final act of the film which shows Cusak running for a public office himself, and I could've sworn that the previous scene showed us that he had become disillusioned with political life.
		The film is a little slow, and not filled with surprises, but you will be entertained.

	Film reviews
		Some films don't really allow this, they have too many aspects, they are several genres mixed together, quite often this is no bad thing, but occasionally when trying to fall in to several groups you fail in all of them.
		This 'film' is Pacino's, he is the man, we see him cope with the problems of a big city, the aspects of seeming to do what the public want while also doing good, helped by his right hand man, Cusack, who is half in this film and half the other.
		The second 'film' is a thriller, a corruption thriller, based around politics admittedly, but not really the same politics.

	City Hall - Music from the Movies
		In the score for City Hall, Goldsmith once again has chosen to build the main body of the work around percussive devices; a rhythmic motif for timpani is the most striking element here.
		City Hall is one of the more psychologically charged scores to come from Jerry Goldsmith in recent years - despite the percussive main motif most of the score is low-key with solo parts for primarily clarinet and a harsh, laboured sound in the strings.
		All in all, City Hall is a quite interesting score, actually not very typical of its composer.
