A candid from Bringing Up Bobby via MillaJ.com Forums:

Bringing Up Bobby is the story of a European con-artist and her son Bobby, who find themselves in Oklahoma in an effort to escape her past and build a better future. Olive and Bobby blithely charm their way from one adventure to another until Olive’s criminal past catches up with her. Consequently, she must make a choice: continue with a life of crime or leave the person she loves most in an effort to give Bobby a proper chance in life.

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Production is underway on another movie being filmed in Oklahoma. It stars Milla Jovovich and Bill Pullman. It's just another example of Oklahoma becoming more competitive when it comes to landing Hollywood productions. That's due, in part, to a 35 percent cash rebate to the film makers for expenditures while in Oklahoma; an incentive that was more than doubled a year ago.

"Well, I love Oklahoma," actor Bill Pullman said. Pullman certainly is getting to see a lot of Oklahoma and the state's people. He took time out this week from filming "Bringing Up Bobby" in Oklahoma City to talk to the Boys & Girls Club. It was about this time last year he was wrapping up another film "The Killer Inside Me" in Guthrie.

"It feels like just stepping back out of time and that town is a real treasure, so it was great to kind of see that," said Pullman. "But in this one, I'm seeing a lot more of the diversity. I realized this is kind of an interesting city that's in the center of America has got a great kind of community spirit and I thought that's the kind of thing I only would hear about. I wonder if I'll ever get a chance to see it."
