The Stranger (2010)

Quite a bit of this was filmed outside at my family’s antique car restoration/auto body shop in Mission, BC in the summer of 2009. The -real- homeless people were eyeing all the clothes, tents, and blankets the set design crew had bought and set up as a homeless camp around the outside of the shop, which is under an overpass and beside train tracks. We volunteer at the Salvation Army, and so we tried to get them to give the stuff away to the street people when they were done, but I think they just tossed most of it. Also, they didn’t buy it at Value Village (large second hand chain store here), like we suggested, so they’d save a pile of money. They bought it all new…just to set it outside for a couple of days. On another note, the movie is ok. The Canadian actor playing the FBI agent has a very pronounced (eastern) Canadian accent, though, so even though he’s not a bad actor, he kind of sticks out. Aaaand…I just realized there are no links for this anyhow, lol.
