movie set city

Walking to Muni this evening, I decided to take a bit of a detour and climbed the steps up to the second level of Whaleship Plaza and walked on through to the second level of the Embarcadero centers. Between 5 and 6, it's still pretty busy up there, but I didn't leave work until around 7 and it's different then. So empty compared to the streets below where pedestrians were still bustling about and cars honked at each other. Quiet too. Funny how going up just one level helps to mute the noise of the city.

Call me a geek if you want, but I often imagine I've stumbled on to some backlot movie set when I'm alone up there. Everything in place and waiting for the director to yell, "Action!"

Tonight it was an introspective indie that won only mild praise at Sundance.
