Clint Eastwood movie to film in Hawai'i

Hawai'i is one of several locations that will be featured in Clint Eastwood's latest film "Hereafter," according to the Guardian newspaper's Web site.

Shooting for the movie began last week in France, and will later move to locations in London and Hawai'i, the British newspaper reported.

The movie is described as a "supernatural thriller" starring Matt Damon as a reluctant psychic, one of three characters in the movie who follow parallel paths that intersect, the Guardian reported. The other characters are a French TV journalist, played by Cecile de France, who survives the Asian tsunami of 2004, and a drug-addicted single English mother played by Lyndsey Marshall.

The top 50 designs are selected from entries of printed annual reports, stationery, books, brochures, catalogs, newsletters, environmental graphics, Web sites and more.
