OK, I've kept you waiting long enough.
Hubby and I are extras in the upcoming movie 'The Conspirator' currently filming in Savannah and directed by Robert Redford.
Most all of the extras are wearing dresses from wardrobe. However, my own dresses were chosen (I am so excited for Christine:) for me to wear!
I couldn't resist taking a picture of the people gathered to take pictures of all of us:).
Hubby and some of the other gents in the movie.
Some of the lovely ladies who are also extras(yeah, I know, the coffee cups kinda ruin the atmosphere).
Two dear ladies who I am proud to say are now friends.
Taking a break.
More of the handsome gents.
A very handsome gent:).
Group pose!
No matter how dressed up we get, the modern technology of the day gives us away!
I must say that it was an amazing experience. We made some new friends and got to meet some stars. If you'd like to know more about the movie there are several websites (Savannah Now has lots of pictures) you can visit. The movie is about Mary Surratt, one of the co-conspirators (supposedly) of Abraham Lincoln's assasination. I have a whole new respect for movie makers after seeing all that goes into the making of those two hours on the big screen.Hmmm...there is one more piece of exciting news.
Then again I need to leave something for discovery when the movie comes out:).

Well, how fun is this? I love the lady with the Coke can. You look so pretty, what a lovely gown. Can't wait to see what follows this!
Hi Kim,
What a wonderful experience this must be for you! Your dress is gorgeous! So is the news...that Kramer has a leading part in the movie? I wouldn't be surprised if he took an Oscar for his performance.lol

What fun! I would love to own a gown like yours, although I'm not sure where or when I would wear it!
Oh how wonderful Kim, that is so exciting for you and your husband.
You look beautiful in your gorgeous gown.
I know how much time and work goes into a movie.
Our kids were extras in a movie Kid's world and we spent two days with them and all for about 2 minutes of time in the actual movie. If you blinked you would have missed them.
I look forward to seeing you in the movie.
Hugs

Kim, I looked at your photos again and you should have been the leading Lady and not extras.
You look very pretty and you and husband make a wonderful couple.
Hugs

I can't wait for the movie to come out! You look so elegant in your gown, and you have the pose down, girl! I like that the movie has something to do with Lincoln, my favorite President. Did you get to meet Robert Redford? What wonderful memories for you both.
Oh, I'm sooooo excited for you!!! I can't wait to see the movie. My husband loves to study the life of Abraham Lincoln, so, eh, too, will look forward to the movie.
Great news, Kim!!!

Oh my gosh! What beautiful costumes, you all look so authentic even with a coffee cup in hand! I also enjoyed your two previous posts and I am a die hard Jane Austen fan. I too sometimes feel like I was born in the wrong time.
I really loved these posts and I will be re-reading and looking at the pictures again! You have a very talented friend!
