Light, camera, action... HOLLYWOOD COMES TO REDCAR!!!
10 Answers
Hi! Just thought I'd tell you where I've been this morning... down to the set of Hollywood blockbuster Atonement!
I can't believe that our little town could be picked as the setting for a major film!
Part of the seafront and beach area has been transformed into a bombed-out replica of Dunkirk, and it looks absolutely amazing. There's bombed out buildings, anti-aircraft guns on the prom, jeeps sunk in the sand and dead bodies on the beach!
Some of my mates are extras (I was offered a part but had to turn it down... honest! Am I the only person to turn down a part in a Hollywood movie!?) the whole town is buzzing and everyone's dead excited about it.
This is deffo the biggest thing to ever happen to Redcar.
I suppose I have to ask a question, so, what's the most exciting thing to happen to your town?

We had a double murder here in the early 90s a man and a woman from Liverpool, it was drugs related I think. It was nearly as exciting as the several robberies, where the police helicopter has circled over head and told everyone to stay i ndoors .
Oh Phil Cool came to a funeral at the Church at the bottom of my road.

Nice picture of the Dunkirk (Redcar) beach showing the L'Hirondelle in our free London Metro newspaper this morning. In fact it shows the before and after pictures of the beach with the headline and text:
Just look what Keira did to our seafront
"Life's a beach for the people of Redcar in Cleveland after their promenade was turned into war-torn Dunkirk yesterday. Makers of Keira Knightley's new film Atonement, based on Ian McEwan's novel, had debris and World War II 'bomb' craters strewn across the sands to recreate the French port. Neither Keira nor co-star James McAvoy are expected to make an appearance in the town."
