Any idea what the movie/TV series is?<br /><br />I was paid really well for allowing a crew to use my garden for their lunch, and for allowing a couple of movie stars to use my house to sit around in between takes. Wow! And it's tax free!Bellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10168550139269893109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-36811882758551101882012-01-09T07:52:23.404-08:002012-01-09T07:52:23.404-08:00I just read your Patch piece and thought it was fa...I just read your Patch piece and thought it was fantastic. Do you remember that show called Family from back in the 70's? I remember finding the house it was filmed at and standing in the driveway of it trying to get a good peak inside. I believe that house was in South Pas or just over the border into Pasadena. I also stood out in the dark and the cold at 2AM to get a glimpse of Paul Newman and Robert Redford filming a scene for The Sting. I just love how South Pas is so charming that Hollywood just can't leave you guys alone!Patricianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-15914678873531288042012-01-09T07:48:30.299-08:002012-01-09T07:48:30.299-08:00Laurie and I were extras in a Willie Nelson movie ...Laurie and I were extras in a Willie Nelson movie many years ago. Our ten minutes of filming took ten days. Laurie was featured prominately in a dance hall scene and my part remained on the cutting room floor. We had to drive to the country every day and get home about 1:00AM, wash and dry our clothes. so that we could wear the same thing the next day. I had an interesting conversation with Willie who sang, "Georgia" for me at the close of a days's shootig. It was interesting and fun to see how it all worked.Dixie Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591688785324214877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-38397146923446055062012-01-09T05:02:59.213-08:002012-01-09T05:02:59.213-08:00I think that would be so much fun, to have filming...I think that would be so much fun, to have filming going around the community all of the time. Austin, known as the Third Coast for it's film companies and shooting schedule (not to mention its huge music scene), has lost some of it's appeal due to tax incentives now given by Mississippi and Louisiana. The powers that be here in local and state government are re-thinking their position on that, and more shows and movies are going to be filmed here. I was an extra in a made-for-tv movie years ago. I loved it.Judy Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081035351814381283noreply@blogger.com
