Hometown's hometown, after all.



George Clooney, one of the most stylish & sexiest actor in Hollywood, currently directed and acted in a film called Leatherheads.


The film is mainly about a professional football team in 1920s...and it could be categorized as a comedy+romance+sports.





What's more interesting or rather surprising is that Clooney chose his very own hometown Maysville, Kentucky for the premier of this film.
The co-actor, Renee Zellweger, also accompanied him there.


A bit of his birth biography? He wasn't actually born in Maysville, but he was born in Lexington & he grew up in Augusta_25km west of Maysville.


No wonder Maysville has quite an influence on him.
Imagine yourself growing up in a suburb near New York City or Paris, you'll see what I mean here.


The movie was shown at the Washington Opera Theatre, Maysville last week. But unfortunately, it could only hold 300 seats.


"It was a huge part of my life, this town. I'm just like them. I just happen to be a little more famous," he told the Louisville Courier-Journal, the local paper.


"Leatherheads" was released officially on 4th April...in the US.
