A Classy Guy

A couple weeks ago I posted about the upcoming opening of The Place Beyond the Pines.  Well, it opened locally in Schenectady (where it was shot) with a small red carpet style showing this past Thursday night.  It was talked about and debated all week just who would show.  The film's director Derek Cianfrance was expected to be here, and some of the lesser known stars, but it was in question whether the big guys, Ryan Gosling or Bradley Cooper would make an appearance.  Well low and behold, Bradley Cooper did arrive.  He is filming his latest movie a few hours away on Boston and when he wrapped for the day, he jumped in the car and drove to Schenectady.  I think that says a lot about who he is and I couldn't be more impressed.  And yes...I did see the movie (all 2 1/2 hours of it), but no spoilers here.
