![]() “I got to play the bartender in that one.” ![]() “They filmed part of another movie here in 2006 for 'Hoax,' a Richard Gere movie,” says Mulligan. Speaking with Tom Mulligan, son to owner John Mulligan, he relates that this is not the bar’s first feature film experience. The Irish pub provides an optimal location for the filming, with its timely, inviting exterior and dim but spacious interior. The story is set in South Philadelphia in the late 70s – early 80s, revolving around a particularly Irish neighborhood. The film, which also stars John Tuturro and Christina Hendricks, is based on the novel of the same name. A familiar spot to all of the local residents, the bar has also gained the attention of location scout Michelle Baker, who selected the bar to host a scene for Philip Seymour Hoffman’s new production “God’s Pocket.”
