My street was closed off today, because BEN AFFLECK is filming right down at the end of it, in my DRUG PARK!
He’s in the back row, third from the left.
That’s one of the saddest little parcels I know, but somehow it’s got the most appropriate name: Meany Park. But it was somebody’s name, I think. Maybe Owen’s. It’s a historical lot–site of the first something or other. Whatever it was, it’s gone now. There’s a plaque. I’ll get back to you on it.
I think the movie’s about a missing child. I think it really promotes Dorchester’s drug parks to highlight them in a movie about child abduction.
But now, with this big-ass crowd out there, I’m not gonna be able to get my Thursday night crack fix. My dealer’s camera-shy.
