...was kinda funny to me. Most Portlanders knew she filmed it here in our city, so there was a fairly big draw on its opening nite. There were a lot of chuckles in the theatre when she said to Joe Montegna`s character:
"Portland`s a small town. I once dated a man who dated a woman YOU dated."

300,000 residents just in the city limits alone does not a small town make. lol!

Actually, there are approx. 575,000 people within Portland proper, and well over 2 million in the metro area. However, most bigger cities like to think of Portland as a 'small town'. That's just how they view us.
