NEW ROCHELLE, NY (09/14/2011)(readMedia)-- A scene for the upcoming feature film Gods Behaving Badly was shot Tuesday, September 13, 2011 at The College of New Rochelle. Lakewood Brothers Production used CNR's award winning Wellness Center on the New Rochelle Campus to shoot a scene involving actor Ebon Moss-Bachrach. The Center's swimming pool was the focus of the filming.

This film, an adaptation of the best-selling novel by Marie Phillips, stars, among others, Christopher Walken, John Turturro, Sharon Stone, Alicia Silverstone, Edie Falco and Phylicia Rashad. Director and co-founder of Lakewood Brothers Production, Marc Turtletaub, took time out from filming to visit with CNR's new president Judith Huntington. He founded Lakewood Brothers Production in 2004 with Peter Saraf and the company's movies include the Academy Award-winning Little Miss Sunshine. This film is his directorial debut.

The crew of Gods Behaving Badly also spent time with undergraduate communication students at the College to discuss movie and film production.

Gods Behaving Badly tells the story of the Greek Gods, alive and well and living in a brownstone in New York City, as they cross paths with a young couple. The intersection of the Gods and the mortals threatens not only the couple's budding relationship, but the future of everything else.
