Well, for some time now, Robert Redford has been filming his latest film The Conspirator in Savannah, a movie about Mary Surratt, who was the lone female charged as a co-conspirator in the assassination trial of Abraham Lincoln. Daniel's students have been keeping him informed about the filming, and tonight we decided to take Winslow for a walk to the set.
You have to excuse the photos, which are not that great as we had to stay a certain distance from the set. While we didn't get any pictures of famous actors, we did get some shots of extras in costumes.
The streets have been covered with dirt, palm trees with "real" bark, horses and carriages have been brought in and everything looked like "old" Savannah. Tonight they were filming the assassination of Lincoln. And it seems that fog is always a requirement for these scenes.
They had set up the fog machine right by the spectators - maybe they wanted us to move...
I love this last shot...
...for a moment we were transported to a different time and place...aside from the giant lights of course!
