Goonies

The Goonies is a 1985 American adventure comedy film. The film's premise features a band of pre-teens who live in the "Goon Docks" neighborhood of Astoria, Oregon attempting to save their homes from demolition, and in doing so, discover an old Spanish map that leads them on an adventure to unearth the long-lost fortune of One-Eyed Willie, a legendary 17th-century pirate.
The Walsh family home (the main characters in the comedy) is a real home at 368-38th St in Astoria.  It is still a place on the list of things to see in Astoria much to the chagrin of the private owners.
