Film Windsor has figured in a number of films: A number of scenes featuring Harrison Ford in the 1990 film Presumed Innocent were filmed in Windsor's Coventry Gardens. The house in the film is located on Riverside Dr. just east of the Hiram Walker Distillery. The scenes of the Renaissance Center in the film were shot from Windsor.
It is featured in the backdrop of Tony Scott's 1993 film True Romance. Windsor can clearly be seen in the background during the Christian Slater/Dennis Hopper trailer scene along the Detroit River. The 2000 film Borderline Normal, featuring Robin Dunne, Stephanie Zimbalist, Corbin Bernsen and Michael Ironside, is set in Windsor.
Many exterior locations, such as Ouellette Avenue, Dieppe Park and the Ambassador Bridge were featured. The 2002 film Bowling for Columbine had several scenes including a snow scene filmed in Windsor, Ontario. Director Michael Moore returned to Windsor to film scenes for his 2007 film Sicko. The 2007 film Baby Blues starring Jenny Levine, Sean O'Neil, Melanie Scrofano, and Michie Mee was shot throughout Windsor, Ontario. The film is scheduled for a Canadian theatrical release in Windsor on January 11, 2008 and nation-wide the following weekend.
