Greenpoint Celebrates 4th of July Early

Earlier today the north end of Manhattan Avenue in Greenpoint was shut down for a 4th of July parade! Allegedly the scene was being shot for a new Jennifer Aniston movie called Bounty Hunter (Miss Heather has pics of the parade preparation). They'll be filming tomorrow (from Freeman to Ash Street) as well, and there are promises of explosions, chases and even Bette Midler! Sadly though, even Hollywood won't be able to bring the 4th Fireworks to the East River this year.

i'd say the poles are gonna get confused - but then again maybe they won't.

The movie is called The Bounty, not Bounty Hunter.

Not allegedly, really.

I was in Greenpoint over the weekend... the No Parking signs say both "The Bounty" and "Bounty Hunter"... so you're both right... :-)
