Have you seen Cold War In Philly? Where were you that day?
Walking our dog around town, we ran into a crew member from the #documentary!
We even saw a recent news interview with #filmmaker Joe Amodei and #Philadelphia #Flyers legend Joe Watson!
A Must Watch.

From "jawn" and "wudder" to "jeet yet?" and "jabroni," the cast of TASK takes a crash course in Philly slang. Some of them fit right in. Others... not so much.
Whether you're a lifelong local or new to town, there's a good chance you've said at least one of these today.

Even decades later, M. Night Shyamalan says some twists are still off-limits. Why? Because an entirely new generation is discovering his films for the first time. Some stories are meant to be experienced with fresh eyes.
Do you agree?

The “Set in Philadelphia” (SIP) competition helps elevate local writers and original Philly stories to industry decision-makers. But the impact doesn’t stop on set—film production supports local businesses, workers, hotels, restaurants, and the regional economy.

Did you know one of the most iconic #props in #moviehistory started as a camera part? 🎬 In *Star Wars* (1977), Obi-Wan’s legendary #lightsaber was built from a #vintagecameraflash handle. Proof that #movie magic often starts with seeing ordinary objects in extraordinary ways.

#HappyMemorialDay. "We Were Soldiers* went far beyond typical #casting. Every #soldier in the company was represented by a cast actor carefully matching their real-life counterparts (even background roles). One of the most respectful & detailed portrayals in #warfilm #history.

One of the most joyful Philly movie moments: Pat running into his therapist at an Eagles tailgate in *Silver Linings Playbook*. Chaos gives way to connection, strangers become family, and for a moment, Philly feels like the happiest place on earth. Go Birds.

Big news for Philly filmmakers: @TheStoryFactory is now a Qualified Production Facility—the only one in Philadelphia proper. That could mean an extra 5% on top of Pennsylvania’s 25% film tax credit. Spread the word and bring more production home to Philly.
