In what initially looked like an embarrassing mistake on the part of Beverly Hills, a sign in front of City Hall has been exposed as a movie prop, and for a Tom Cruise film, according to a comment left by Mayor Barry Brucker at the Beverly Hills Patch. Beverly Hills's ornate 1931 City Hall is playing the part of LA's government center during the course of a one-day shoot, reports the Patch, which initially thought the sign was an amusing screw-up. It's not clear what the movie's about (could it possibly be alien genocide flick Horizons?), but the crew couldn't have shot the real thing 11 miles east?
