Goings On In & Around Town

It's a Wrap! Paul Sorvino, his Oscar winning daughter Mira and son Michael, just finished shooting the film The Trouble With Cali in Scranton. The feature, written by Paul's daughter Amanda, is the coming-of-age story of 15 year old Cali, (played by Montreal actress Laurence LeBoeuf), who "cannot elude the madness of her jealous, theatrical and morosely comedic family". She escapes the chaos only to have to choose between two new men in her life. The Hilton hosted cast and crew for almost 3 months while filming.

Are you a FAN of The Office??? Actor Rainn Wilson, better know as Dwight on the show, was recently in Scranton on a publicity tour. The NBC comedy based on the fictitious company Dunder Miflin, is a quirky look at the goings on at a paper company in Scranton! The show is loosely based on one of the
Hilton's top accounts!
