Hollywood has come to town, part of the new Indiana Jones film is being filmed right here in New Haven. (www.newhavenindependent.org/archives/2007/05/city_clears_pat.php)
They have transformed a few of the local streets and shops to look like 1950s for a big chase seen.
Last night they had a big party to help kick it off. There was a bouncy castle and the Aerial Angels (www.angelsintheair.com) performed. Ellie loved the carousel and coxed us into letting her ride it three times. An orchestra played music from all three movies and at 9:00 they showed Raiders of the Lost Arc on a big screen. We met up with Pam and her crew and Ellie and Charlotte had a great time running around on the Green.
The filming starts tomorrow. I might have to go snoop and see what I can see. OOOHHH, how exciting.
Wow! Cool! I wish I were there! Some of those stores look to have better fashion than the stores I remember being there!!! Cool!! Give my love to Indy!
