Actor Richard Gere waves to the crowd who watched filming of his movie, Hachiko: A Dog's Story, today at a street scene across from the Woonsocket train station. Each storefront, including Al Drew's Music, was decorated to resemble those from the 1920s. People shreiked, "There he is!" as Gere quickly headed for a car and drove off the set.

Mr. Gere filmed in Bristol supposedly at the house I grew up in on High St. Does anyone know if that is true?
