It was a training video filmed by NYPD for itself on Wed and Thu.
Thanks to personnel of the Laundromat for letting us use their restroom so many times.
Thanks to the local guys who brought kosher pizza on Wed night.

 

looks more like they're preparing for a chupa

 

looks more like a crime scene than a movie production, no camera crew or equipment around or production trailers. and with all the white shirts and plain clothes hanging around it looks like a crime scene

 

Does anyone know which movie, who is in it, or how long they will be there?

 

Which movie: NYPD training movie. Who is in it: NYPD cops.
How long they will be there:
two (2) days – last week Wed & Thu.

No camera crew or equipment?
On photo #5 you can see a female officer standing behind Mitsubishi. In her right hand she’s holding an expensive camera with a large/long objective lens. On the same picture a male officer is standing by the blue cooler. He’s holding a camera in his left hand.
There is additional equipment inside the Video Unit van that was parked on sidewalk; see photo #2.
There were no production trailers.

 

It's a new version of Yent'l, with all chassidic cast. Basically a bucher is forced into a marriage, but even after he agrees, the machloketh arises between the parties, who can't decide which of the unnamed Rebbe's 12 sons is the legitimate rebbe. Each has a shul, each calls himself Grand, and each miraculously has a Sefer Torah that belonged to the Baal Shem. The viewers, who purchased their TV sets at Focus in air conditioner boxes, are encouraged to call the producer and offer the climax to the plot, before the sad case ends up in a goyishe court.
