RIP: Robert Altman
About 10 years ago, while living in Chicago, my roommates and I were visited by a guy claiming to be Robert Altman's production assistant. They were scouting the apartments near Wrigley Field for a location in an upcoming film and asked if we minded if Robert stop by to check our place out the next day.
Being fans, we said yes and embarassingly "randomly" placed our VHS copies "Short Cuts" and "The Player" in view. The next day, we see Altman and his assistance walking down Sheffield Avenue. They went into the building next to ours and never made it to our apartment.
Bummed, we broke out a copy of the film "Blink" which actually used our apartment for a few scenes. The thought of Madeline Stowe naked in my living room always brings a smile to my face.
It's too bad about Altman, though.
