   True, but the last time residents were being inconvenienced by his   
   production there was a videoclip online as proof, which I believe adds a   
   little more weight to this latest story.

   Of course, and he has done when on holiday. All parties were happy then   
   because no-one was inconvenienced. Now the only people that are happy are   
   the cast. They're the outsiders in another Country. They shouldn't be going   
   in and making demands which result in people that have lived there for years   
   being told they can't fly/sail. Hell, a no-boat zone on Lake Como is like a   
   no car zone on LA's busiest freeway. It's just preposterous! Who the hell   
   does Clooney think he is all of a sudden??? If he wants to live in Italy he   
   needs to learn that Europeans have rituals that they don't like being   
   disturbed, least of all by poor little rich celebs. He knew what he was   
   getting himself into when he got together that A-list cast and chose those   
   filming locations. I have no sympathy. He's brought it on himself.
