Conklin: Filmed mainly in Montreal but showcases Madison

Late Tuesday morning there’s a whole lot of pacing on a Bascom Hill. Every time someone shouts “background!” people start moving in well- orchestrated lines around a couple that includes a blond woman in a long ivory jacket.

The woman in question is Blythe Danner, the Tony Award-winning stage actress also known for “Meet the Fockers.” The man she’s filming the scene with is Harold Ramis, of “Stripes” and “Ghostbusters” fame.
