I came home on Sunday night to find flyers posted on all the trees along my block. These flyers notified us to move our cars off the marked streets for the next three days. For what - street cleaning? No. Apparently, my neighborhood (and my street in particular) has moving-making qualities. Universal Studios will be using the streets/neighborhood as a set for the next several days, and apparently my stylish '98 Civic is cramping the set's style.
It is exciting to know they will be filming a movie in front and around my home despite the inconvenience of moving my car. Christina and I are on a mission to find out what the movie will be and when it will be released. I'll keep you posted, but tell me if you hear anything about a movie being made in the Logan Square area of Chicago. Crossing my fingers that Clive Owen will be waiting for me on my doorstep after work...although if it's Hugh Jackman, I won't object. I consider myself a pretty friendly person. =)
UPDATE: The movie is Public Enemies which is being directed by Michael Mann. It is based on the early 1930s crime wave of gangsters such as John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd and the government's attempt to stop them with J. Edgar Hoover's FBI. The line up for roles are: Johnny Depp as John Dillinger, Christian Bale as Melvin Purvis an FBI agent and Billy Crudup as FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. Public Enemies will hit theatres in 2009.
