Not Boone, Bourne or Barnes.

Yes it is the Trump Tower, which is used as a symbol for the excesses of the period as well as providing a location.

I don't think it's the answer you have in mind, but I'm pretty sure The Dark Knight Rises filmed there (as well as above the hill behind my house).

I was thinking of "The Wolf of Wall Street" but your answer fits the location and clue so you are correct.

I've not seen The Wolf of Wall Street, although I know I really should.

Next up.

Not a film location, but I love that you can do this in google maps.

Sabrett hot dogs are the best! That's what they have at that cart with the blue and yellow umbrella.

This one has recently featured in this very game, but a different location and not by me.

Nope. Can't think of a link to base a clue on, either.

Nope. As far as I know, that location has only actually appeared in the one film, too.

They're traditionally served with a red onion sauce. You will never find a ketchup bottle anywhere near a Sabrett cart in New York. If you ask for one you may not survive the encounter.

ROTFLMAO (or something)

Lance, I so hope to meet you in this life over in the US of A for a genuine Sebrett Hot Dog, and I hope to meet you in this lifke over here for one of those infinitely perverse Sacandinavian hot dogs, served with the most atrocious ketchup you can dream up in your really. I mean Really, bad nightmares.

I would love both of these things! I understand you may have some beverages available over there I might enjoy with those sausages too.

The Sabrett hotdogs are only in the New York area, so we'd have to make a road trip. However, I did find a New York style pizza place here locally that has some in their freezer. He gave us a 5lb pack of them a couple of months ago. They were awesome! Like the pizza, a taste of my youth I hadn't had in 40 years.

But don't even get me started on Chicago style vs. New York style pizza.

Nope. The lead actor is an English one who tends to play Americans, and has been in two films called American <something>, though.
