Tryouts Set for Schenectady Film

If you or someone you know is interested in trying out for the movie being filmed in Schenectady this summer, tryout dates are out.  In case you haven't heard, “The Place Beyond the Pines,” a movie starring Ryan Gosling ("The Notebook" & "Blue Valentine") and Bradley Cooper ("Wedding Crashers" & "The Hangover"), will be shot in Schenectady this summer.  And the coolest part (other than catching an up close glimpse of either actor) is that movie producers are looking for some local faces to star in the movie as well.
