Homeowner sues studio over filming damage

Bosses at Columbia Pictures in Hollywood are facing an expensive legal battle after a jeweller's beachfront home was wrecked by a film crew.

Yossi Dina rented out his Malibu, California, home to Columbia studio chiefs for Adam Sandler's new film Spanglish, but he was horrified when the crew wrecked furnishings and walls to the tune of an alleged $76,000 (€58,900).
