Where to Go When Hollywood Hits Washington

There are a few occasions when Hollywood feels a need to wing its way to Washington: to shoot or attend a premiere for a film or TV show with the District as a backdrop; to headline a rally or promote a cause; or to attend the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner -- the "nerd prom," in local parlance. But these days, parties and causes aren't the only draw for D.C. The city has upped its cool quotient, and the restaurant, hotel and cultural contingents have been flocking to the District, inspired by the most stylish couple to hit the White House since Jack and Jackie.
