CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo.

A little bit of Hollywood is coming to Cape Girardeau. Producers of "Killshot" have confirmed that Diane Lane and other stars and crew will be in town later this year or in early 2006 to shoot scenes for the movie.

Based on the 1989 novel by Elmore Leonard, "Killshot" will tell the story of a married couple who find themselves in Cape Girardeau while on the run from a pair of hitmen.

Scenes for the film will be shot in late December or early January, said Jerry Jones, executive director of the Missouri Film Commission.

"Cape Girardeau is of huge atmospheric importance to the film," co- producer David Webb said recently from Toronto.

Wonder if they'll ask Rush to be in the film....;o)

Who's Diane Lane?

Since Viggo Mortensen is Lane's co-star, I'm going to say it's unlikely.

Extremely attractive, relatively talented actress.

My favorite Lane role is in the enjoyable B-movie Streets of Fire, but she is best known now for being the adulterous wife in Unfaithful and she was just in Must Love Dogs.

You don't know "Laurie Darling?"

She was also the secret service agent in Murder at 1600. Wesley Snipes starred.

Never heard of'em... or her.

Then again... the last movie I saw was 'Kill Bill'.

Nope

My wife is a big fan of her chick flick "Under the Tuscan Sun". I liked her in the Mat Dillon movie "The Big Town" as a sexy fan dancer.

Don't know either one. Guess I'm out of the loop.

Who's Diane Lane?

She was in A Perfect Storm, among others.

Thanx for the pic. I still don't recognize her. She's no stranger to her plastic surgeon, though.

I don't see many movies. If an actor hasn't been around for 10 or 15 yrs, I probably don't know much about them.

I lived in Cape for about a year. I was a freshman at Southeast Missouri State University. I transferred after my first year.

Cape is a lovely little town. Nice people, hot and humid in the summer, cold in the winter, and a surprising amount of stuff to do. A typical southern town. I really liked it over there.

She has been around for 10-15 years and several of the movies listed came out before Kill Bill.
