LONDON BOULEVARD TITBIT NEWS....

HOLLYWOOD bad boy Colin Farrell and Pushing Daisies star Anna Friel are filming in a legendary East End café today. Oscar winning script writer William Monahan is making his directorial debut with the movie London Boulevard and he also adapted Ken Bruen's best-selling novel for the film. Mr Monahan picked family-run Italian café E Pellicci on Bethnal Green Road to film a lunch meeting between Colin Farrell and Anna Friel's characters. The popular café recently stood in for a Liverpool diner from the 50s for a movie featuring English Patient star Kristin Scott Thomas about the early life of John Lennon called Nowhere Man. Mr Monahan told the Advertiser: "You will be able to see the interior of the café in the film, which is a crime romance and will be coming out next year." It's the tale of a London crimal newly released from prison who is played by Farrell, who becomes involved with an enigmatic actress.

Pellicci's was a popular haunt with East End gangsters the Kray Twins who lived just round the corner in Vallance Road. Mr Monahan won the Oscar in 2007 for his script for The Departed also filmed at the First Choice café just a few doors down Bethnal Green Road.

LONDON BOULEVARD LOCATION NEWS...

Keira Knightley and Colin Farrell spent last week at Hammerwood Park filming their latest film, London Boulevard, a contemporary crime drama.

House owner, David Pinnegar is something of an expert when it comes to hosting film crews and was un-phased at meeting the celebrities.

He said: "We've had pop videos shot here for Victoria Beckham, The Darkness and Mel C and we've had fashion shoots for Laura Ashley and they're going to be using the house for the location for their Autumn collection."

Mr Pinnegar said the film crew invited the whole village to the set to see what was going on.

"They created a lake and from what I've seen it's going to be well worth going to see. I was reading the script and seeing the shots through the camera, I think it's going to be very atmospheric and gripping," he said.

The house was derelict until 1982 before Mr Pinnegar and his family restored it and has been used for films ever since.

"The house is used partly because I know what I'm doing and I'm film friendly. It's a great location and it's a spectacular house," he added.
