So how many movies does the Island as a location star in. I know Crocodile Dundee II has a scene shot at the Vanderbilt Museum and the diner (Soviaro's sp?) in Huntington was used in another. Adventure Land was in an Alan Alda move (Sweet Liberty?) and of course the Fire Island Light House was a Post Office in Men in Black II.
So what other TV shows and movies was locations on Island in?
Goodfellas -- Catalina Beach Club - Atlantic Beach (Karen's big job), Valley Stream but mostly Queens.
The Godfather -- mansion in the horse's head scene is Falaise at the Sands Point Preserve
In & Out (Kevin Kline) Northport and Cold Spring Harbor
North by Northwest Old Westbury Gardens
I've probably gone in the wrong direction by listing films which were filmed on LI, sorry. At least Goodfellas fits the request

North by Northwest was filmed in Glen Cove , right in my old eye doctor's home actually. The little white shingled police station where Cary Grant was arrested was right on 25A & used to be there years ago. I am not sure if it's still there, though. Why don't they have movies like that anymore ?

I remember when they made North by Northwest because my eye doctor Conrad Behrens allowed them to use the front of his house for the exterior part (when Cary was taken to his mother I think).
That other part was really South Dakota, though. I lived in Mitchell , not too too far from Rapid City .

Thanks for the link AlexisT. I was on campus in the early to mid 80's, and then again in the 90's. Neither time had I ever heard the Debbie rumor.
