Upcoming movie shoot on Prospect Park West?

I was on Prospect Park West close to the Pavilion, and I saw they’re getting ready to film a movie. Does anyone know anything about this movie? Who’s in it, or anything?

It looks like a huge production, with blocks and blocks being closed from parking with orange cones.

They were filming 'The Carrie Diaries' in the park last week. I guess that's is a Sex in the City prequel/TV show? Anyhoo, it may still be that.

Or maybe it's the movie with Ben Kingsley (Learning to Drive.) I heard he was in PS this week.

I think this is the same movie FIPS posted about.

Someday, I am going to get up the nerve to help myself to one the catered lunches they always have available for the workers.

There was a week where they were shooting off of Eastern Parkway by the garden I think. I would run by ever morning and was always tempted to grab an apple and bottle of water and keep running. Never did it though. I do believe that being chased by a PA would drastically improve my pace.

I wouldn't give myself full credit if I only did a snatch and grab.

I want to hang out, eat the lunch, and tell anyone who asks that I am the fill in driver.

I'd give my self full credit only if I got chased. Heck maybe they'd film it and make it a DVD extra!

Wouldn't that make you the filled up driver

They are filming on 8th ave tomorrow, no parking signs everywhere.
