That's interesting, but more than 80 years later, the sight of a film
crew still draws a crowd, even if it's only one man.

There's some interesting footage, taken by a tourist, of Buster Keaton
and Harry Gribbon (the cop) trying to film a scene for THE CAMERAMAN
on the streets of New York. The crowd is so thick around them that
it's hard for them to take the scene, which incidentally doesn't
appear in the final film. (It's not one of the scenes described as
being in the "lost reel," so it may be they had to give it up because
of all of the interference from passersby.)
