Movie Filming In Area This Weekend

From Alan Kimber:

I thought I would pass along the following information I got from the Mayor's Office of Motion Pictures & TV Development:

Dear Neighbors,

I wanted to pass along information about an upcoming Universal Pictures film called "State of Play" that will be filming in our neighborhood *this weekend*. There is definitely the potential for traffic snarls, and pedestrian traffic will certainly be affected. Of course, it is more great exposure for our neighborhood, and you can also go out and watch. Filming locations & times are:

G Street, NE both sides
between 1st Street, NE and North Capitol Street, NW
7pm on 3/14 until 2am on 3/16/08

G Place, NE both sides
between N. Capitol Street and 1st Street, NE
7pm on 3/14 until 2am on 3/16/08

1st Street, NE West Side
between H Street, NE and Massachusetts Ave., NE
7pm on 3/14 until 2am on 3/16/08

If you would like more information about the film, which features Russell Crowe, Ben Affleck, Helen Mirren, Jason Bateman and Rachael McAdams, see this Wiki entry:
