How would you know?
While in Washington DC today (June 17, 2009) we stumbled into a movie filming location. Several people on the crew told us that the movie being shot was How would you know? They also mentioned that it was the third day shooting, out of a planned 82 days. They stated that it was a James L Brooks movie and that the title would likely change. In fact the name of the movie was blocked out of the legal warning signs indicating that we might be unintentional extras. (You could still make out the title under the sticker they used to cover it up, and the bottom of the sign said "How would you know? Productions"

The scene was being filmed on the sidewalk on the Pennsylvania Ave side of the Canadian Embassy.

Since there is no page for this film yet, I am leaving this note here. Do with it as you wish. Boufa (talk) 02:21, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Did director of "Broadcast News" foresee Brian Williams?
Heard by 20 million across America, Rush Limbaugh spent a lot of time talking about how Director Brooks predicted our times. You can read it later via www.RushLimbaugh.com -- FYI, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 18:41, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
