Billy Bob Thornton and Kevin Bacon Filming In Oakhurst Today
Decatur Metro | July 5, 2011 | 3:35 pmSharron sends in a couple pics from the filming going on in Oakhurst today – you may recall our recent “Eye on the Street” pics of the set – and writes…
Billy Bob Thornton was super nice posing with Decatur Police and Station 2 Fire earlier this morning. Filming continues this afternoon at “Donavan’s Discounts” store and the carnival “see this” set in the “Big H” lot.
Patch reports that Kevin Bacon was also spotted at the Solarium this morning.
One more pic from Sharron of Mr. Thornton posing with Decatur PD after the jump…














I hope nobody asked him about his singing career.
Or “How’s Angelina, Mr. Billy-Bob Bacon?”
Nice of him to take pix with the police and sign autographs.
Hey, they filmed for three days in June in downtown Cedartown…setting is a town in Alabama in 1969. They did a great job getting the storefronts to look like 69. Even had some great old cars lining the street. Stars Robert Duvall, Kevin Bacon, Dwight Yokam, et al.
Hmmmm, some people call it a slingblade, hmmmmmmmm…….
