Video: Trailer Released for Woody Allen Flick Filmed in Marin

Legendary movie director Woody Allen and a handful of acclaimed actors caused quite a stir in Marin last August when they filmed an then-untitled film here.

That project, produced by Perdido Productions based in New York, now has a title, a release date and a trailer (above). 

Blue Jasmine, which stars Academy Award-winning actress Cate Blanchett as a pampered wife who loses it all, hits U.S. theaters July 26. Its cast also includes Alec Baldwin, Louis C.K., Bobby Cannavale, Peter Sarsgaard, Sally Hawkins and Andrew Dice Clay.

Blanchett's character, a glamorous New York housewife, moves to San Francisco to live with her sister after she discovers that her husband was a crook. She doesn't exactly fit with her Left Coast family's the blue collar lifestyle. 

While the cast and crew were filming in Marin 10 months ago, Allen and his family were spotted enjoying a quiet lunch at Left Bank Brasserie in Larkspur after he wrapped up for the day of shooting nearby at the Escalle Winery property. 

The director behind the movies Annie Hall and Midnight in Paris also did some filmwork in Belvedere and on a bayfront street in the Paradise Cay neighborhood of unincorporated Tiburon, according to the Marin Independent Journal. 

The Tiburon Ark newspaper snapped pictures of Blanchett, Louis C.K. and Allen in Belvedere as they arrived at the private residence where they were filming. 

The film is also set in the Mission and Marina districts of San Francisco and the avenues in the western end of the city, according to the San Francisco Film Commission.
