Starstruck
7/07/2010Got a little star struck yesterday as film crews transformed the entire footpath right downstairs from my work building into a 1970′s Parisian sidewalk.
Whispers about the great Robert de Niro making an appearance within literally a stone’s throw away from us were churned fresh out of the rumour mill in the early hours of the Tuesday morning. And if we’re lucky, the rest of the cast from the movie Killer Elite.
Row of vintage cars at the movie set…
A movie extra all dressed up as a french waiter =)
By noon, a crowd had gathered around the set. After much anticipation, there he was! Although his part lasted for probably 5 seconds, it was interesting seeing all the painstaking effort taken to set up a short movie scene.
It’s comforting to know that eventhough I might be oceans away from Paris, the cafe strip downstairs from work which can easily be transformed into a Parisian footpath, provides me with a slice of the city that I love, every day.
