Matt Damon and Casey Affleck and crews have taken over Bova's in the North End to film scenes from a movie in which they play thieves whose robbery attempt goes awry.
No word if Jon Hamm will play an FBI agent who screams into a phone demanding somebody "close the bridge!" again, but part of the requirement for at least one scene involves snow, which Adam Castiglioni watched being delivered today (along with some fake BPD SWAT trucks and a cruiser from the gritty F-1 police district).
Tracey, meanwhile, spotted Ben himself outside the Cambridge Street firehouse on Beacon Hill:

I know we all (UHub people from Boston's neighorhoods) could make some extra money by charging tourists 5 bucks to hear a true "Boston accent" for 5 minutes so that we could afford to go to the movies more often. Matt and Ben get paid much, much more. But other red carpet stars sound painfully embarrassing. I have to admit the car chase in The Town had me get heart palpatations.
