Details? Details?
come on people - give us some scoop!
shareSparkle is currently being filmed in Cheltenham, Gloustershire. I stopped by the set at about 3pm today. They are currently filming at Clarence Square. No information was forthcoming from any of the crew however I saw Bob Hoskins and I think Stockard Channing; both had undated attire so cannot tell when the movie is expected to be set. One thing is for sure, they have been using grand locations around the town.
Looks quite interesting, oh and Anthony Head was there too.
thanks! That is so cool. I'm jealous you can pop down to the set. Thanks for the update. For some reason I thought they might be done by now. Originally I hear filming was to start in April.
shareJust turned on the local radio and they have stated that filming began here, and will be proceeding for the next three weeks. On Sunday night they are filming on what is known as the Promenade, which is a long path up to Montpellier (the best part of town).
Luckily the prom has a webcam which you can find here:-

Our local radio Star FM have promised to keep us updated as to whats going on and locations. I dont know if they have an online option you can listen too just google Star Fm, Cheltenham and this will keep you updated.
Just found out some more info:-
Sparkle is the tale of a young man with bright ideas. He leaves his life in Liverpool and travels to London (London being substituted by Cheltenham) to make a name for himself. When he arrives he meets a wealthy American woman who he has an affair with, she makes him her plaything. Life is ok and she indroduces him to rich and influencial people. However when he meets an 18 year old girl its love at first sight. However the American woman (whom I assume is Stockard Channing) refuses to let him go and be with her, and starts to plot his downfall.
hi any pictures from the set? i'm a big fan of Omar Berdouni's and i'd LOVE to see him!!! please let me know thanks!
I thought they wrapped filming on this quite awhile ago. They were filming in March and April. Actors interviewed about it talked about it in the past tense.

No, the lead isn't gay, but there are some nice gay men in it.
In fact everyone in the film is totally lovable. And although I've always respected Bob Hoskins as an actor I have to say this is the first film where I've actually liked him.
The whole gay/straight thing is handled with impeccable taste. And Amanda Ryan is very sexy.
