But an alert downtown tipster reports that around 11, both Hendricks and Sarah Jessica Parker were in Post Office Square Park enjoying some sandwiches from the takeout place filming a scene for something, no doubt the movie that just a couple days ago was advertising for skateboarders and food-truck owners as extras.

She should swing by PAX this weekend if she's in town. I bet a bunch of that crown would be delighted to see her.

They're filming "I Don't Know How She Does It" today and tomorrow. Much of the story takes place in Boston, but it was filmed mostly in New York. They're up here to make the Boston scenes look more like Boston.

Hollywood has been selling a lot of Boston 'charm' lately, without Boston getting much in return. Other than an arguably deserved reputation for being full of simple-minded thugs with accents.

...that Christina Hendricks and Sarah Jessica Parker both walked right by you, but in my head, that sentence reads "Both of Christina Hendricks' breasts walked right by me- it was really cool to see them in person!"

She's primarily known for being on Joan on Mad Men. She doesn't really have many famous roles aside from that.
Also she has large breasts.
She was sizzling in Firefly.

Sorry for the short post before. I couldn't feel my fingers, so I kept it short. Here are the pix. We were originally standing right at the foot of the path that leads straight to the Statehouse (they were filming on the path). They got paranoid after a while and made us move all the way to the T stop.

It was a horrible time to film. I hung around for about 45 minutes and couldn't feel my hands for a little while after. I can only imagine how cold SJP was with no gloves. The Common looked dull and lifeless.

If you can't feel your hands after 45 minutes of looking at Christina Hendricks, try varying your grip.

Don't worry - Hollywood can add green leaves on the trees in post-production for you. CGI 'n stuff.

One scene just wrapped up. Sarah Jessica Parker runs out of the little side street near the Union Oyster House and tries to catch a cab. Three of them (including "Brownstone Car Service" and "Midnigfht Ride") blow right past her.
They have a guy in a Santa outfit and fake snow on the ground.
