Welcome to Oshywood

Filming for "Public Enemies" started on Friday at Pioneer Airport. It starts downtown tomorrow.

Here's a job related sign we saw in a fake soup kitchen on the "set":



Yow--who could live on money like that? Of course, collective bargaining and unions weren't really in full swing until the late 1930s, or you would never have seen something like this. Women's work wasn't valued as highly then. Hey, wait a minute, is it now? Men still get paid higher wages.

More pics from downtown, which was a crazy scene today.




Hey, IATSE 470, could you keep the fake billboards up? They are much better looking than that fountain.





Main Street never looked so good.
