From the NewsTimes 8/12/2011: Scenes of the feature-length film "The Reluctant Detective" were filmed last Friday at locations in Danbury, including the Danbury Railway Museum on White Street.

The comedy, written and directed by Stratford's Christopher Lombardi and produced by Danbury's Erik Tonner '04, centers on a television actor who plays a detective on a popular cable TV show and becomes involved in a murder investigation while vacationing in a small town.

Scenes for the movie, which started production in 2010, were also filmed in Stratford, at the Brookfield Theatre for the Arts and at the Concordia Society on Crosby Street, using a downstairs bar to recreate a 1930s speakeasy. Local residents were among actors playing various roles in the movie.
