In Country, staring Bruce Willis was filmed in and around Mayfield and Paducah. It had just finished or was wrapping up shooting when I moved to Paducah, and Bruce and Demi had their oldest daughter in Paducah.

All had scenes filmed in Eastern Kentucky I believe.

"Steel" starring Kentucky's own Lee Majors, was filmed downtown Lexington.

Here's what I could think of offhand...

 

Seabiscuit had several racing sequences shot at Keeneland.

 

Ides of March had several scenes shot around Covington, Newport and Bellevue.

 

Goldfinger was shot largely at Fort Knox.

 

Elizabethtown was shot principally in E-town and Louisville.

 

Rain Man had scenes shot in Newport (Pasquales) and Melbourne - the shot for the movie poster was taken out front of St. Anne's Convent in Melbourne.

 

The Insider was shot partially in Louisville.

 

As did Secretariat.

Airborne filmed on the streets of Bellevue, Newport, Covington, Dayton.

 

First 1:50 of this trailer shows all those cities.

 

A League of Their Own had scenes shot at The Soaper-Esser House located in Henderson.

It it was the house the team lived in. Although I'm not sure if they did any actual filming inside, all of the outside scenes were shot there.
