Hi Melanie,

Indeed, the flea market is happening... walked by a few minutes ago... filming is going on too. Looks like a very modest production. Just a few trucks.

I like him too, Girl. I read this book, and think he's a great choice for the lead role.

Hello,

I worked on this film now entitled, 'The Trouble With Bliss' as a film extra. It was released last spring season, 2011 to mostly dismal reviews, critics railed against it.
