Inmate Lands Film Role in Mrs Soffel at Pittsburgh Jail
Fifty Allegheny County Jail inmates including Larry Lindsay will act as turn of the century prisoners in MGM’s Mrs Soffel filmed in Pittsburgh. Lindsay, serving up to 10 months for burglary, notes his girlfriend won’t tolerate shaved beard. Inmates volunteers wore short hair under skullcaps as beards were forbidden. The project, starring Diane Keaton and Mel Gibson, set 1902 Pittsburgh jail scenes with exterior shots in downtown and interior filming.
