I think it was filmed in LA. About 10 or 15 years ago, Bruce Willis (from nearby Pennsville, NJ) was in Wilmington to film a movie. I believe that it was being shot in the Polish neighborhood and word was out that Willis was drinking at a few of the local watering holes. At the time, my friends and I believed that a great night out consisted of drinking mass amounts of beer and whiskey, shooting pool, and fighting any other group that looked at us. So naturally, we shifted our drinking to the bars that were rumoured to be where Willis and his Hollywood crew were out and about. We couldn't find him and the movie ceased filming after a few days and the project was scrapped. Looking back, it was very stupid behavior, but it would have been nice to kick some Hollywood ass. Maybe Bill Maher, Lewis Black, and Jon Stewart will be making a stop in Wilmo? If they do, they better not step in one our spots. Sent at: 2008 12 01
