Assistant Commissioner Julianne Cho and Marketing Associate Allie Kleva discuss the benefits of shooting in New York City at the Berlin Film Festival
March 1, 2006 - Last month, representatives of the Mayor's Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting attended the Berlin Film Festival, where they met with international filmmakers to discuss the "Made in NY" incentive program and opportunities for filmmakers in New York City. They also rooted for New York City's impressive lineup which played at the festival:
The feature film Stay, starring Ewan McGregor, Naomi Watts and Ryan Gosling, a $50 million project which shot exclusively in NYC when the Mayor's Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting provided access to the roadways of the Brooklyn Bridge for production. The film tells the story of a professor who tries to prevent a student from committing suicide.
Night Listener, starring Robin Williams, Toni Collette and Sandra Oh, which shot at Silvercup Studios and tells the story of a radio host who begins to question a caller's identity.
The Notorious Bettie Page, starring Gretchen Mol, which tells the story of Page, the famous 1950's pin-up model.
Dave Chappelle's Block Party, featuring music and sketch comedy from the eponymous comedian.
