A Look at Harrison Ford in 'K-19'


The Winnipeg Free Press have an article on Harrison Fords' role in 'K-19: The Widowmaker':

Everybody was out looking for him," beauty salon manager Leona Johnson said in Gimli, where the A-list star was shooting scenes for the movie K-19: The Widowmaker.

He had the whole town agog, she said.

The greying heart-throb was in Gimli for less than 24 hours to shoot a scene from the submarine drama, which included about 70 locally hired extras.

"Not too many people got to see him," Johnson said at Shear Pleasure Hair Design.

Susan Zielke, who had staked out the Lakeview Resort Tuesday with her children Scott and Kayla, didn't get to see Ford.

"Scott's teacher did and a bunch of my friends did," she said. But Zielke wasn't disappointed. Her kids had an opportunity to see how a movie is made and, besides, she wasn't that big of a Ford fan, anyway.

"He's just a person like everybody else."

Except that Ford is reportedly earning $25 million US for his role as the Russian sub captain. And worth every penny, if you ask Donnalee Moffatt, who spied the star in costume at breakfast yesterday.

"He looked very handsome in his naval uniform," said the general manager of Lakeview Resort, where the cast and crew were staying.
