We see lots of downtown Los Angeles while Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy are supposedly driving around San Francisco in Walter Hill's film "48 Hrs." (Paramount, 1982). In this shot we get views of the Rialto Theatre, 812 S. Broadway, and the Orpheum 842 S. Broadway.
See the pages on the Los Angeles Theatres site about the Rialto Theatre and the Orpheum Theatre for histories of those two venues along with many photos. The Rialto's marquee got restored but it's now an Urban Outfitters. The Orpheum is still going strong as a concert venue.
On IMDb: "48 Hrs."
