Ethan and Joel Coen are in New Rochelle shooting scenes for their current project, Inside Llewyn Davis, due out in 2013. Filming will take place at City Hall on Thursday, February 16 from 12 noon to 2am on Friday, February 17.
UPDATE: Justin Timberlake and John Goodman, among others were in New Rochelle last night. The rotunda in City Hall was “dressed” with framed gold records on the wall. If you have further information or photos please send them along.
The film stars Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Justin Timberlake, Garrett Hedlund, John Goodman, and F. Murray Abraham. It is billed as a screwball comedy about the folk music scene in 1960s New York. Isaac plays the title role, supposedly based on Dave Van Ronk.
