Kaplan says the movie has shut down streets and cost him business, with no advance warning. This, after merchants are being challenged by the coronavirus and smash-and-grabs. "They blocked off the area, so there’s no parking, our regulars who live in the neighborhood were furious because 1980s film cars were sitting here," Kaplan said.But Kaplan is super-annoyed.
