The Ryan Gosling-Russell Crowe movie "The Nice Guys" continues filming in Atlanta and needs some extras for some scenes next week, including folks with shaggy retro looking hair, who might be willing to light up. It's a period piece set in the 1970s, when people made questionable decisions regarding cigarettes and hairdos.

The movie, written by Anthony Bagarozzi and Shane Black with Black directing, also stars Matt Bomer, Kim Basinger and youth actor Ty Simpkin. It's a thriller about a detective who stumbles onto a conspiracy while investigating a mysterious death and is due for a 2016 release.
It is set in late 1970s Los Angeles, hence the vintage threads and wheels we see here:
