On Location in Tompkins Square Park

I was walking through Tompkins Square Park this past Sunday, when I saw this film crew preparing a shot beside the robot trash can:

It turns out they were not in fact preparing a shot, but taking apart the camera, in preparation for walking to another part of the park (the drumming is from a drummer, warming up for a "punk rock" concert):

Once they got to the other side of the park, they set up their camera again:

This was the scene that they were preparing to shoot:

It looks like a remake of "Sid and Nancy"!

East Villagers love movies about punk rockers!
