A lot of movies are made in Cleveland, but not a lot of movies are both made and set in Cleveland. I can think of one off the top of my head, “Draft Day,” but that’s part of the playbook when the film’s main character works in the Cleveland Browns’ front office. Even Ralphie Parker of “A Christmas Story” — arguably the city’s most famous on-screen resident — lived in the town of Hohman, Indiana, in that movie.
