Finally

Hi all, I have no idea who I blathered on to back in June 2013 when I was kicked out of the Toppenish chamber for writing a letter about all the things Zach wasn't doing. So if this email makes no sense to you, I apologize and you can cheerfully ignore it. If you were one of those people and if you remember my rambling the news is: Zach's last day is March 14! Effie

Movie
by Effie in the desert 23 Sep '15

23 Sep '15

The Agriculture Museum where I volunteer is providing some 1920's/1930's equipment for this movie. Also some ladders, hand trucks, and lots and lots of wooden apple boxes. The set people also asked if we had 1930's era clothing but we don't. Oddly enough, not a month ago I was asked by a woman if we could use "two closets full of 1930's clothing". Of course I have no idea who she was since I knew it wasn't the kind of thing the museum would want. The film required an apple orchard with large, very tall, widely spaced trees like they grew them during the 1930's. The location in California where they were going to film the opening and closing scenes of the movie was dried up and brown from the drought. So, they reached out to a local apple packing firm here in Yakima. They had the orchard with old style trees, but no antique equipment. Enter the Ag museum... I do know generally where it is going to be filmed, but not exactly. The set dressers have been in Yakima since last Friday. They've visited the museum a couple of times and picked out some other things they want moved to the location. The apple packing company is going to haul the museum equipment out there on Friday. Effie http://www.yakimaherald.com/entertainment/movies/slice-of-yakima-james-fran… Slice of Yakima: James Franco film seeks extras for Yakima shoot (beards a plus) By Pat Muir pmuir(a)yakimaherald.com Updated Sep 17, 2015 Are you a man with a beard? You could be in a major motion picture directed by and starring James Franco. No beard? Not even a man? Well, maybe you still could anyway. Portland-based casting company Extras Only put out two calls for extras this week for scenes in “In Dubious Battle,” the Franco-directed adaptation of the John Steinbeck novel. One called for men “with long beards” to play apple pickers. The other was broader, calling for men and women to play apple pickers. Shooting in Yakima is set for Sept. 27-28. Just where remains a secret. Previous scenes were shot months ago in Georgia. The notices do not say which if any cast members from the film will be in town on those days. In addition to Franco, the film features Bryan Cranston, Selena Gomez, Ashley Greene, Robert Duvall, Vincent D’Onofrio, Ed Harris, Zach Braff and Josh Hutcherson.
