The movie The Lovely Bones was filmed in my hometown. If you haven't read the book, it's about a girl who was raped and murdered, but while in heaven she looks down upon her family. At least I'm pretty sure that's what it's about.
Anyway, it's based off a true story, because the girl who was raped was from my hometown. In fact, she was a graduate of my high school. So the movie producers came to a neighborhood near my home and payed one of the families who live on the street to use their house for the movie. They are also modeling the school used in the movie off of our school, so it looks very similar.
