Today's Blind Items - Boom
I recently wrote about a film production crew that is trying to bribe its way through Europe in hopes of blowing up a bridge. The bribes and payouts have been numerous, but the results have been lacking. Returning to the country where they originally wanted to do it, they found a willing partner. They found someone who thought they could get the permits, but they needed to show that it would be the right thing to do to blow it up. Make it something that seemed like a benefit to the town. Enter the demolitions expert who collapsed a section of the bridge. Now, the production team is trying to convince those in charge that blowing it up is the right thing to do and they will give the town money to do it and then the town can build a brand new bridge. More sturdy. Uh huh.
