Movies are still being made, but the studios aren't wanting to shell out as much cash for them as they used to. I heard Harrison Ford took a role for half is normal rate (which is $10mil, so $5mil still isn't too shabby). But when what overhead does an actor have? The Orphanage and guys like them are employing dozens to hundreds of people and have to deal with facilities and equipment. I'm sure they still got work, but my bet it isn't just wasn't paying the bills. Bummer deal. I’m afraid that’s the case.

I don't know a whole lot about this group, but it really sounds like a great organization. It's sad that the community is losing them. Is there a positive side to this news? Films are still being made...why are they having to close shop? Are they just part of the unfortunate results of a slower economy? This news is depressing.
