Pass that Dutchie; Ocean's Twelve in Amsterdam Coffeeshop RTL Boulevard (NL) ~ 4.17.2004 ~ translated by solutions

Amsterdam will soon be the location for Ocean's Twelve shootings. AT5 uncovered Brad and George can most likely be found in a Coffeeshop.



Recordings
Warner Brothers has been ultra secrative about filmshoots that will bring Brad Pitt and George Clooney to the Netherlands for Ocean's Twelve, the sequel to box office hit Ocean's Eleven. In a few weeks shootings will start in Amsterdam and bring Hollywood stars like Brad, George and Catherine Zeta Jones to Amsterdam for on location recordings {solutions note: the original report said Julia Roberts, hehehe}. The script and locations had been carefully kept secret but have now been leaked.

Coffeeshop
After some research, Amsterdam TV-station AT5 uncoverd one location: the Heiligeweg in Amsterdam's city center. Local businesses are pretty exited but are not supposed to tell anything. A key scene in Ocean's Twelve will be recorded in Coffeeshop 'De Dampkring'. And the lead characters are no strangers there!

{solutions~note: De Dampkring, not bad, not a bad choice at all}



Incognito
Paul Wilhelm, owner of the coffeeshop tells AT5: "I can only confirm there will be a movie recorded here, but I can not say when. We have Bradd Pitt in our store a few times a year, all incognito with a beenie and glasses. Just sitting there smoking some. We've had George Clooney in too sometime. They are just nice people."

{solutions_note: citizen of the world Bradd Pitt is said to have previously lived in Amsterdam for a few months in 1991 and to have a place in Amsterdam's Jordaan area in his multinational real estate portfolio. Other celebrities like Madonna and David Bowie have found themselves their pied-à-terre in Mokum City, ranked the world's 10th most livable city according to Mercer's.}
