Date : Tue, 11 Aug 2009 17:22:11 -0700 From : "Mr. Worf" <hellomahog...@gmail.com> To : scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com I was listening to NPR Monday afternoon and there were several stories about the closing of several major backbones in the movie production business. The first was the movie prop house that provided thousands of items that are used in the production of films for over 50 years closed its doors and auctioned off items that were used many famous films. Another was about studios relocating production locations to places where the taxes are cheaper. For example, Deal or no deal is now coming live not from Hollywood but from Connecticut! The second was about the closing of the home for retired actors.
