If you haven't passed by Queen St. and Broadview St. to see the way they've converted this neighborhood to make it look like 1930's Depression-era shops for the movie "Cinderella Man", here are some pics to show what a great job they've done. They should be done filming there in the next day or 2.

("Cinderella Man" stars Russell Crowe & Rene Zelwiger, directed by Ron Howard- set in the '30's about a boxer)

russel crowe should be there ... apparently he has been here for quiet a while now, training for the film.

they did a really good job

They shot some scenes inside Maple Leaf Gardens too...for a while, every day on my walk to work I'd pass a bunch of extras hanging out outside MLG, stylin' in their '30s suits

The inside of MLG was even cooler- set to look like Madison Square Gardens in the 30's. Stadium seats were filled with these inflatable manniquins wearing suit jackets & hats- it was soooo crazy!

Dunno if it's still up, but there was a Madison Square Gardens marquee sign on the south side of the Bay store (Richmond St, just west of Yonge)- it was really incredible! I hope its still up cuz I haven't gotten any pics on my camera yet (just others).

Is Rene still around? I haven't seen her in a while *sigh*

I thought they were done filming this long time ago already but I'm kinda happy they are still here.

A friend of my mom's spotted Owen Wilson downtown the other day, I would have loved to chat with that guy

Yeh, I work at Richmond and Bay (well, one short block west). I've been watching the various stages of production, funny to see a bunch of horses downtown last friday . I'll prob check today to see if that sign on the Bay is still up.

LOL.. i saw this too.. i was like WTF??? are we in New York?

Ive also noticed all those extras taking their break in their 1930's type uniforms

ITs pretty scary how much effort it takes to make a film of this proportion.
