If this was told to me today I will think scammer.

Not only a great movie, but a great Philly movie. It was filmed on location, and every year I’m tempted to have my picture taken in front of Winthorp’s house in a dirty Santa costume, but it’s a fancy part of town and I don’t want the cops called on me.
