Close Encounters of the Drunken Kind

Here in Massachusetts, we've got some quips to remember to stay safe when driving. We've got "click it or ticket" and "buckle up- it's the law." Last Friday, Cape Ann learned why we have these safety limericks. The Proposal star Sandra Bullock's SUV was hit head- on by an allegedly drunk driver, Lucile Gatchell. Boston Herald's Inside Track reports that no injuries were sustained with anyone involved and filming has not been postponed. In fact, Bullock made sure to stop by Gloucester bakery, "Last Stop" to get one of her pups a birthday cake (complete with dog bones and a few cases of water) just days after the accident!

The Proposal will be filming in Cape Ann until early June. You can probably catch Sandra on foot and steering clear of the roads nowadays!

Proposal Pictures!

Here at Boston Movie Tours, we love hearing your celeb stories and seeing your celeb photos. With the huge influx of films coming to Boston, we've gotten lots of stories and pics, and love sharing them here on this blog.

Most recently, an avid movie goer sent some photos from Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynold's The Proposal. Filming was done in the State Street Bank building last week. This week, the crew can be found in Newport.

Thanks and keep those pics coming.

Bullock meets Beantown!

This week, the financial district will be handling a different kind of proposal. Miss Congeniality's Sandra Bullock and National Lampoon's Van Wilder's Ryan Reynolds hit Franklin Street this week on the new romantic comedy, The Proposal. Bullock stars as a Canadian woman whose visa is just about up. She attempts to lure her assistant (played by Reynolds) into proposing to her. Boston Herald reports that the crew will be filming on the fourth floor of the State Street Bank Building for the remainder of the week before moving up to Newport over the weekend. You can catch Ryan and Sandra in Newport until the end of April.

If you've got time, drop on by Franklin Street this week to say hi to Sandra and Ryan. Unless of course you are a high powered businesswoman from Canada looking for residency. My thoughts are he's already got his hands full with that.

The Proposal and Sandra Bullock

Another romantic comedy is coming to Beantown this spring. The Proposal stars Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds.

Bullock plays a pushy boss who marries her young assistant in order to keep her Visa status in the U.S. and avoid deportation to Canada.

The scouting team has reportedly been seen around Boston trying to find condos with very big bathrooms. Hmm.
