WATERTOWN, MASS. (WHDH) - A new movie directed by George Clooney was filming in Watertown Friday.

The production crew for “The Tender Bar,” an 80s period piece, sent a letter to residents near Bemis Park telling them about the shoot.

“They were very respectful of the neighborhood and that’s the playground that my kids grew up on, so I love it,” said neighbor Connie Henry.
