Halle Berry is a thieving "Payne"

gg.jpgHalle Berry's smart career choices in recent months continue as she has signed on to a movie titled Who is Dorrs Payne?.... which is thankfully, far, far away from any Marvel or DC franchise. The movie is the true story of Doris Payne, a women who spent 75 years at large, robbing precious stones. "Never did Doris Payne grab the jewels and run. That wasn't her way. Instead, she glided in, engaged the clerk in one of her stories, confused them and easily slipped away with a diamond ring, usually to a waiting taxi cab".Justin Berfield, the movie's producer and former actor in Malcolm in the Middle said this of Payne... €œDoris is a magnificent woman and she's incredibly intelligent. "I aim to tell her story the way it is. It will explore claims she has a mental disorder but I hope to leave it up to the audience to decide whether Doris is a hero or a villain. There's no way she shouldn't be punished but it is important to state Doris never physically hurt anybody. She made her living stealing from the rich and from stores." Sounds like a fun flick and one hopefully Berry won't mess up. Dorris is still alive, and in prison for her crimes but she may be released within a couple of years. Who knows she might be released early enough to attend the film's premiere? source - moviehole
