Spotlight on Staten Island theater in Pacino film

A new movie starring Al Pacino as an aging actor was partly shot at a grand old theater on Staten Island with an interesting history.

Pacino performs several scenes in The Humbling on the stage of the St. George Theatre, which is located about a half-mile from where Staten Island's famous ferries cruise past the Statue of Liberty to Lower Manhattan.

In one scene shot at the St. George, Pacino throws himself off the stage into the audience; in another, he has a confrontation with an old friend, Dianne Wiest, in the orchestra.
