DON'T MESS WITH OUR TOMMY LEE

Well, Tommy Lee Jones starred in that great movie "No Country for Old Men" and now claims the studio owes him $10 million. The film was made here in New Mexico and I am sorry I didn't see him when he was here. Apparently he was promised box office business which was $160 million. Not insignificant. Hope he gets it as he was terrific and of course the film one best film.

If you are here now filming and are interested in real estate or leasing, give me a call. Judy Pierson 220-9193, Coldwell Banker Legacy

NM IS A WINNER AT OSCARS!

Who by now doesn't know that No Country for Old Men won the Oscar as best picture and several other awards to boot. What may not be known is that it was filmed here in New Mexico in one of our proud historic towns called Las Vegas. Las Vegas was on the original Santa Fe trail and like Pasadena, CA had rich families from the mid-west settle there at the turn of the century. There are wonderful grand old homes that are being updated and attracting buyers from out-of-state who want to retire in NM but live in elegance. Charming town! I just sold a fast food drive-in to a Taco Bell franchise so even the food is getting upgraded!!

Oscar Attention Goes to New Mexico

Two movies made in New Mexico are up for Best Picture. One is "There will Be Blood" with Daniel Day-Lewis about the silver minor who discovers oil. The other, of course, is "No Country For Old Men" with Tommy Lee Jones, who has made several films here. The film was written by our own New Mexican, Cormac McCarthy. both Lewis and Jones have been nominated for best Actor awards too. The Western movie "3:10 to Yuma" is one of my favorites and was nominated for Achievement for Sound Mixing and Music Written for Motion Picture. Talk about top billing for our State?!
