Thread: Wanna see something very cool?

Tweet

I didn't know where else to post this, but I'd bet all you guys would like to see.
They are shooting an old movie around the corner from my shop in San Dimas.
They will be here all week. Yesterday- they had the street car set up in the ressy street w/ overhead wires & all. Very cool but I didn't have camera.
Today was even better. I didn't get by there until 5pm & they were winding down. Many of the cars had already left but several were still there. Old street w/homes built in the teens. I guess the movie is pre 32. Who cares- still damn cool!

that would be pretty cool to come home to that everyday. thanks for posting those for us.

I wonder if the window air conditioner will give away that this was not in the 1920's????????

Yea- there's lots of modern stuff poking out the windows & in yards. There's another pic w/ an a/c in the window too. The guy I talked to said they remove them in PP. I'll cruise by tomorrow & see what else is there.

That is really cool Steve, thanks for posting the pics!

Ya the ac units I am sure can easily be removed, know the nicely paved road is some thing maybe a little more difficult.

Thats cool dude

they can hide stuff like that with film croping and leaves

man the street should be brick too in the 20, not that i would remember.

They have trucks filled w/ leaves.

Not a small movie. I'd guess a big one- planned release is 11/08
Director is Clint Eastwood & stars Angelina Jolie. Brad & Angelina have been seen all over town, except by me. Title of movie is The Changeling. I remember a movie w/same name back in 70's. This one takes place in roaring 20's. There are cool stock 20's cars all over town.

I found this link.

I think these guys had alot to do w/ gathering the cars. They are 2 blocks away from the shoot location. Lots of them parked around their store.
