Maysville Prepares For Clooney Premiere

Monday is going to be a big day for Maysville and Northern Kentucky as a famous native son brings Hollywood to town.

Actor George Clooney will be coming home to hold a "red carpet" premiere of his new movie, "Leatherheads", in Maysville, Monday evening.

We watched just after dawn Monday morning as Maysville got busy "setting the stage" for its second major "Hollywood" movie premiere in 55 years.

Maysville is turning its West Second Street, in front of the historic Washington Opera House, into a Hollywood Boulevard of sorts. Special spot lighting is up on lampposts. Movie signs are nearly in every downtown window and banners are being hung from street signs.
