 The 1985 "Brat Pack" film "St. Elmo's Fire" also revolved around a group of students who had just graduated from Georgetown.The bar that much of the film takes place in is based on The Tombs, a bar and restaurant known for its large student clientele and rowing decòr, located one block from Georgetown's front gates in a historic university owned house.Georgetown denied the producers the rights to film on campus, so parts of the film were shot at the nearby University of Maryland, College Park.
