Since today is March 15, we thought it would be fun to look back at some of the photos we took during the filming of Clooney's movie.
The Ides of March may have been cruel to Julius Caesar, but George Clooney's brush with March 15 has worked out decidedly better.
In 2011, Clooney turned to Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky to serve as a backdrop for a political thriller he directed and starred in. "The Ides of March," which also featured Ryan Gosling, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Evan Rachel Wood, was filmed at various locations including Head First Sports Cafe (now Kitty's Sports Grill) in Downtown and Xavier University's campus.
The movie, which revolves around a political scandal, has held up pretty well over the last few years. It has an 84 percent Rotten Tomatoes rating and 73 percent of that site's users gave it 3.5 stars or above on a 5-star scale. According to IMDb, the movie made more than $40 million off of an estimated $12.5 million budget.
Since today is March 15, we thought it would be fun to look back at some of the photos we took during the filming. But beware, this gallery may have you pining for a sequel, or at least another Clooney visit.
