Producer Pays 1,000 of Pennies...
 
A Hollywood producer agreed to pay a couple $1,000 to stop noisy tree trimming during a TV shoot then delivered the payment in big bags of pennies. While on location last month shooting a new series for Paramount Network Television, producer Ronald L. Schwary's location team asked Stefanie and Myron Roth to halt the trimming because the noise was interfering with the production. The Roths agreed on the condition that they be paid $1,000.

Schwary, who won a best picture Oscar for the 1980 film "Ordinary People," waited several weeks before having 100,000 pennies delivered to the Roths. Myron Roth, the retired president of a small entertainment company that produced the TV hit, "Baywatch," said he was baffled when the coins arrived. "It took us a while to figure it out," he said.

When the Roths finally understood what had happened, they were outraged and threatened to sue. Paramount responded with a letter apologizing for "any inconvenience" and agreed to pay the Roths $1,000 and donate $1,000 to a favorite charity. Schwary and Paramount declined to comment.
