Crews for the "The Company Men," the made-in-Boston film by director John
Wells and starring Ben Affleck, Tommy Lee Jones and Kevin Costner, are
slotted to film on Wednesday, May 27 at Daisy Buchanan's pub located located
at 240 Newbury St. on the corner of Fairfield.
Production is scheduled between 5 a.m. and 2 p.m. and parking restrictions will
be in effect on Newbury and Fairfield Streets for most of the day.
The subterranean Newbury Street bar and restaurant, named after the flapper
heroine of F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby," packs in the frat boy crowd
and its business-suit wearing alumni.
"The Company Men" follows a year in the life of three men trying to survive a
round of corporate downsizing. Affleck plays a corporate bigwig whose
six-figure salary is suddenly cut after he gets a pink slip.
Before taking over Newbury Street on Wednesday, crews are scheduled to film
at a private residence on Crowninshield Road in Marblehead on Tuesday, May
26. The home, with a stunning waterfront view, is the residence of Brian and
Nancy McCarthy of Kelly's Roast Beef fame.
On Tuesday, June 2, Affleck is scheduled to make a return visit to the Gannon
Municipal Golf Course in Lynn to finish scenes he shot on Wednesday, April 8.
