"Pacing up and down the block was a tall septuagenarian named Lenny Shiller, from Midwood, Brooklyn. He was on the set of Steven Spielberg's new movie, 'Bridge of Spies'—about a U.S.-Soviet prisoner swap at the height of the Cold War. 'There's a lot of waiting around on movies,' he said. 'It causes agita.'"
