...is the title of Ellen Page's next film. It's being filmed now in Des Moines.

It's being described as a psychological thriller. It is takes place in Peacock, Nebraska.

I shall endeavor to find out is there is such a place.

I might have to move there.

But you missed the money quote: “Some residents view the peafowl as a nuisance without parallel, while others view them as a desirable part of the City’s distinctive rural heritage.”

This sounds like here.

Now here's a bit of irony (or something): Ellen Page's big movie is Juno and now she is doing something called Peacock... as it happens, the sacred bird of the goddess Juno is... the peacock.

Whilst fishing in Berlin, WI last week, there was a film crew in nearby Princeton. They were doing some exteriors for the movie about John Dillinger. Dunt know if Johnny Depp was present. The end.
