New Nic Cage movie injures people.

The above headline is redundant, but in this case the injuries weren't caused by watching the movie. From Newsday:
A movie chase scene got a little too realistic early Monday when a car jumped a curb and crashed into the entrance of a Times Square restaurant.

Police say two people were injured in the accident shortly before 1 a.m. Both were taken to a hospital, though police say their injuries weren't life threatening.

Notices posted by police indicated the shoot was for the Nicholas Cage film, "The Sorcerer's Apprentice."

The scene required a Ferrari to pass several vehicles in pursuit of a Mercedes as it drove down Seventh Avenue, which was closed to traffic for the filming.

Witnesses say the Ferrari appeared to take a hard right turn and smashed into the Sbarro restaurant at 47th Street and Seventh Avenue.
