Greetings!
Spent a wonderful day on the set of season 2 of "Boardwalk Empire" yesterday. Showed up at the wardrobe fitting in my Magnoli "New Yorker," and the costume person asked the boss "do we even need to dress him??" Of course, I was happy for the chance to try out MORE suits, and I was put into a fantastic dark blue double-breasted number and an original striped shirt with a soft collar. The haircut guy only had to give my neck a touch-up.
Anyway, the scene was at Babette's Supper Club, and the fact that it's an actual room, not a soundstage, meant that everything in 360 degrees is dressed up as something. With the smoke and late-afternoon yellow light simulation, and everyone perfectly attired and made-up, it was really one of those eerie "you are there" moments.
Has anyone else in the region worked on the show? Seems like lots of opportunities for non-union hacks like me to fill in the background.
