For those tidbits, the SEC said, Sokolow was paid...
They recognize Film Producer Freddie Fields and his friends in the Polo Lounge, but Fields is a long way from Beverly Hills, on patrol in deepest North Carolina. With him are Australian Director Bruce Beresford (Breaker Morant, Tender Mercies) and several indisputable movie stars--notably Diane Keaton, Sissy Spacek and Jessica Lange--in addition to the assorted children, nannies, pets, significant others, caterers, crew members, drivers, accountants, studio biggies, flacks, journalists, rent-a-cops, cutpurses and dancing bears that accumulate when a film company hits the road. Fields, Beresford and the rest have come to North Carolina for the filming...
