True Grit

I'm on the road for a photo shoot, and today as I was driving through the small Texas town of Blanco, I noticed what I first thought was renovations being done to the courthouse. There was scaffolding, big lights and trailers circling the courthouse square. Then I noticed craft service truck and cast trailers and realized that this was a film shoot.

I asked the local Germania agent, and she told me that they were shooting a Matt Damon movie there. I saw actors in period costumes, so a quick check on IMDB told me that it was the remake of True Grit, the old John Wayne film. Awesome.

I'm staying down the road in Fredericksburg, so here's hoping I run into Matt Damon, Jeff Bridges or Josh Brolin tonight in Luckenbach.
