you can film anything you want if you are standing on public property, or your own property. even if you are looking into private property.
not sure on selling it though. i just know the above to be true because i work in news and that's the law we go by. and I guess we make money off it is a strange way, but I'm not sure howthe money thing works if it's not news.

Unless its like phonebooth, you won't get much of the movie. It would be cool to have some video if it being made, though.

You would have to sign a release form. Just ask the producer to provide one, most will oblige, I know I allowed it when filming our movie.
