RYE, NY -- Westchester will get its 15 minutes of fame when "Ricki and the Flash" opens Friday, August 7.
The movie, starring Meryl Streep and her daughter, Mamie Gummer, was shot at Patisserie Salzburg and Numi & Co. Hair Salon in Rye as well at DeCicco's Market in Harrison and Barney McNab's Bar in Yonkers, in addition to other locations.
You can see the Numi Salon, which has a sister location in Scarsdale, in the trailer (Streep is spinning on a chair).
In other Westchester news, Croton-on-Hudson's Audra McDonald, who plays the new wife of Streep's character's ex-husband (performed by Kevin Kline), also stars in the film, as does actor/musician Rick Springfield.
The Tristar film, written by Diablo Cody (of "Juno" fame), and directed by Nyack-based Jonathan Demme, centers on a struggling musician (Streep) who abandoned her family to find fame and fortune in California. It is loosely based on Cody's mother-in-law.
