So yesterday, Phoebe, Amos and I were taking our walk (yes, Amos was feeling well enough to walk) through Bryn Mawr College and we wandered onto the set of the movie they are filming there, Tenure, starring Luke Wilson. And when I say wandered, I mean wandered--right into the middle of a rehearsal for a scene being filmed in one of Bryn Mawr's Gothic archways. A bunch of kids were walking through the arch (I did think it was a little odd because there were a bunch of guys and Bryn Mawr is an all girls' school, but what do I know?) and there we were, face to face, with Luke Wilson--who is very cute in person.
Phoebe and Amos thought this was all fabulous because where there are actors, there are catering trucks with lavish spreads and of course, everyone fawned over them and told them how beautiful they were. Phoebe already knew this and concentrated very hard on removing a sandwich that one of the makeup people had stuffed into her equipment bag. We saved the sandwich just in time.
The best part however was when we crossed the street and ran into a group of bystanders who had gathered to watch the filming. They made such a fuss over the dogs because they thought they were in the movie!!!! One even asked for their autographs. This is enough to placate Phoebe for the rest of her life, although she is a bit miffed because I blew her cover.
More about the movie. From what I gather it is a romantic comedy about a professor coming up for tenure, facing off against a female rival. Bryn Mawr College is depicted as Grey College and as of now, the production company is planning kickoff events next year to promote the film in college towns.
So be on the lookout for the promos--you never know if we truly will end up on the cutting room floor!!!
