wee_mangoOkay so that's what the movie being partially filmed in Belfast is going to be named. The one for which I went to the extras casting yesterday, which by the way was just filling out a form with all your normal details: height, shoe size, address, if you were willing to have your hair cut for the time period if you were picked etc & then having your picture taken with you holding a number. I think I was person number 252 so there were at least 250 people who turned up and more since there were at least another 20 or 30 when I left!!
My friend sent me an email with the apparent plot line:
"Set in Belfast and North Carolina over two time periods -- 1943 and 1993. Inspired by the fact that Belfast was the base for a U.S. bomber squadron in World War II. When a B-17 crashes near the city, the dying rear gunner asks a local to return his ring to his girlfriend back home. Half a century later, a young Belfast man finds the ring, learns its history and tracks down the old girlfriend, who turns out to have married the gunner's best friend. "
And check out who all are meant to be starring in it:
Mischa Barton, Brenda Blethyn, Colin Hanks, Dennis Hopper, Shirley MacLaine, Peter O'Toole , Ryan Phillippe, Mena Suvari...wow...and Richard Attenborough is supposed to be directing... 0.0 Holy crap.
