Oscar-winning actor Casey Affleck worked the grill at an Upstate New York restaurant last weekend. Affleck wasn’t in Schenectady for a movie, he was filming B-roll for a new music video for Zach Bryan. Affleck spent about two hours at First Prize Mike's. Bryan is out on tour and wasn’t present, but wanted to film in the area after watching “The Place Beyond the Pines”, which was shot in the city.
