New York in the Spring is an upcoming movie waiting to happen. Well, leave it to Woody Allen to begin shooting his next flick on the day the Pope was coming to town.

Walking toward 8th via 19th St., I noticed a film crew that had drawn quite a crowd. I quickly learned that it was indeed the new Woody Allen film! Instant intrigue. Not one minute later Larry David, Patricia Clarkston and Evan Rachel Wood appear. Crazy. The actual set was placed away from the street, but I was able to manuever myself in a way to see the auteur himself. I still can’t believe I witnessed this on my way home from work.
