Day 46 of 60 was recently filmed at the tourist attraction “South of theBorder” for the film Forces of Nature starring Ben Affleck and Sandra Bullock.

“Whichever way the monkey jumps, he always sees his own tail.” That was thequote of the day on the call sheet for the first day of filming, TuesdayAugust 18th. One set was scheduled under “Big Pedro” the towering 97 footfigure of th resorts mascot.

“They pull into South of the Border and get off the bus,” the call sheetreports. Extras include bewildered parents, heavy set tourists, South of theBorder employees and kids. On Wednesday, “Sarah (Bullock) takes sunseekers andBen (Affleck’s real name and characters name) onto a ride.”

And who was the “Lava Lady” on the call sheets? “That’s just something we puton our call sheets,” Steve Saeta (production manager) replied. “Every day wehave a very good time on our set. There are jokes and bantering going on.”

While at South of the Border, half of the hotels 300 rooms were rented by thecast and crew.

The story involves a love triangle between Bullock (Sarah), Maura Tierney(Bridget) and Affleck (Ben Holmes), a New Yorker who has two days to reachSavannah to marry Bridget. His plane skids into Flushing Bay and he saves thelife of his seat-mate, Sarah.

“It’s a romantic comedy where Ben Affleck, sort of a yuppie New Yorker, isgetting ready to be married,” said Saeta. “He’s traveling down and suddenlyget thrown into a tumultuoussituation in which every way down the road, hegets slowed down by various ‘forces of nature,’ whether it’s a plane thatcan’t take off, a rental car that gets pulled over, a storm or whatever. Andduring the course of this, he meets up with Sandra Bullock who is on her waydown as well. It becomes a question of is he going to fall for Sarah or is hegoing to marry Bridget?”

The film should be out sometime in either March or April, although no exactdate has been set yet.
