Brooklyn's Finest Films in Brooklyn

It turns out ex-transit worker Michael Martin's movie was filming in Brooklyn yesterday. Photos of Ethan Hawke, Lily Taylor and a NY Post prop were taken on location. The movie, Brooklyn's Finest, is described as a drama involving the three intertwining story lines of Brooklyn cops.

Variety just named Martin one of the top 10 screenwriters to watch, and they make note of one idea he's had for a subway-set miniseries, amongst other things. He declared to the publication: "I've grown up in New York City, I know New York City, I know the people, and they have stories that are bigger and broader than what most people would think."

Here's a list of other projects currently in production and on location in New York.
