Columbia Pictures and Revolution Studios production The Mona Lisa Smile, starring Julia Roberts and Julia Stiles filmed on January 13, 2003 on the corner of Bank and West 4th Streets (renaming the intersection Bleecker and MacDougal)

Because the movie takes place in the 1960s residents were treated to a parade of late 1950s cars. We're showing a few of them to you.

Most of the filming took place inside a local restaurant dubbed Cafe Pandora for the movie. The Strand bookstore is really a travel agency. Smile Productions made a generous contribution to the Waverly Bank Neighbors which will be used for a beautification and safety project.
