We're used to seeing Huddersfield on the small screen with myriad TV shows filmed in and around our area.
Only this week we brought you the story of new ITV drama Black Work, featuring Cilla star Sheridan Smith, being shot in town.
But our town's appearance on the silver screen is less frequent.
You'd have to have a good memory to remember Yanks being filmed in Marsden and a wide movie collection to have seen budget thriller Scintilla, but that could change.
It has been reported that Tour de Yorkshire organisers Welcome to Yorkshire have held talks with a team of scriptwriters to transfer the White Rose's bid for cycling stardom into a film.
Chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire Gary Verity has confirmed that there are initial plans for a movie - believed to be in the same feelgood film style as Calendar Girls and The Full Monty, both filmed in Yorkshire.
“We’ve had a meeting with people wanting to write a film on how we got this event. It’s quite remarkable. The first thing is for these people to go ahead and write the screenplay so these things take a long time but we will see,” Mr Verity told the Yorkshire Post.
The team behind putting the script together for any movie are expected to spend time in Yorkshire in the next few weeks - but, like any film, it needs funding to move from the page to the cinema screen.

A Welcome to Yorkshire spokeswoman said it is an “ambitious project” which could take several years to hit the screens.
The news came as a Welcome to Yorkshire team headed to Paris to hand over the Tour de France baton to representatives of Utrecht, where the spectacle will begin in 2015.
Mr Verity said: “Unforgettable, momentous and unbelievable are all words we’ve been fortunate enough to hear describe the Yorkshire Grand Depart which makes the team at Welcome to Yorkshire feel incredibly proud.
“It seems like only yesterday we were in Paris telling the world about what Yorkshire had in store for the Tour. Now, a year on, we officially hand over to Utrecht for their Grand Depart and reflect on the historic event Yorkshire hosted that has not only written us into the history books as the grandest ever Grand Depart, but promoted the county of Yorkshire to the world on a scale never before achieved.”
Sally Joynson, Screen Yorkshire chief executive, added: “It’s not surprising there are writers who want to explore the potential of the story for the big screen.
“We have spoken to the writers but the project is still at a very early stage.”
