March 23, 2016 – Filmmakers (at far left) shoot in the Loop on Saturday. The scene did, in fact, involve the man in red glasses and woman in red coat at far right, standing outside a Walgreens. Since they did not block traffic, this crew most likely did not need a filming permit. Filming permits are currently issued for five projects in the Loop and River North, mostly for a still photography shoot for Leo Burnett and its client, Philip Morris.
