The Year of Getting to Know Us - Jimmy Fallon flick filmed in Jacksonville
While the movie “The Year of Getting to Know Us” was being filmed last year, a bunch of my friends were seeing Jimmy Fallon around town. I am a big Fallon fan, yes Jimmy Fallon has fans and people do love the song Idiot Boyfriend. So you can imagine I was anxious to know what the movie was about, when it was releasing etc etc. I think it’s fun to watch the trailer below and recognize some of the areas in Jacksonville where they were filming. I know that New Yorkers, Bostonians, Miami-ites and San Diegans get to see this stuff regularly, but not us Jacksonviller-ian-ites (that’s what we call ourselves).
Feel free to point out all the places you recognize in the clip below. Kind of like one of those Highlights magazines, where you find all the missing things on the back page.

I can’t wait to see it! It actually made me a bit nostalgic. *sniff sniff*
p.s. I saw Jimmy @ Fly’s Tie in Atlantic Beach. I’ve seen more famous people in Jax than I have in LA!

Had a great time working Jimmy,Lucy Liu,Tom Arnold,Tony Hale and Ileana Douglas.Also worked as one of the cops arresting Salma Hayek and Jared Leto with John Travolta in LONELY HEARTS and as a newspaper reporter interviewing Kevin Spacey in RECOUNT.Jacksonville is a great location for movies.
