Movie locations in Illinois

Hi there,
I live around Chicago, IL. Few days ago I managed to visit the actual house from the movie Home Alone, and took a video of that. What are other movie locations in Illinois are interesting to see?
Thanks,
Doron

Union Station downtown, especially the stairway that was used in the movie “the untouchables.“
