Neighbors in the Back Bay area expressed concern when they heard gun shots coming from a brownstone at 315 Dartmouth near the corner of Marlborough Street yesterday.Confirming a Loaded Gun tip posted early on Tuesday, it turns out crews from the Mel Gibson flick "Edge of Darkness" are filming a key scene in the Back Bay neighborhood.
Shooting, as in the made-in-Boston movie and not the gun prop, is slotted to continue today on Beacon between Clarendon and Berkeley streets and then returns to 315 Dartmouth.
Meanwhile, the home owner at 68 Bradfield Ave. in Roslindale has become a local celebrity of sorts scoring a second feature in a local newspaper with the latest in today's West Roxbury Transcript. While "Edge of Darkness" crews filmed key scenes both in and outside of her home last week, Jean Hutchinson says she had a close encounter with Gibson.
“I spoke to him and he said hi," she says. "When he gets out of the car, he is actually thinking about what he’s going to have to do. He just walks straight ahead. His mind is on his work. But when he signs autographs for the kids, he is very cordial to the youngsters. He jokes with the crew."
The Transcript article here mistakenly calls the Mel Gibson flick "Enemy of Darkness" instead of "Edge of Darkness."
