Plymouth Business Featured on Oscar Telecast

Plymouth's Action Karate now has an Oscar claim to fame, as it was featured in a clip from "Silver Linings Playbook," a Best Picture nominee that was filmed in the Norristown area.

"For a split second, Action Karate made the Oscar's Broadcast!!" said a Facebook post from the business, which was located on Conshohocken State Road and has since moved to Butler Pike in Plymouth Township.

Action Karate owner Sean Dwyer told Patch that the movie used the school's old Conshohocken Road location as a 'holding station' for two days in October of 2011.

A screen shot of Action Karate's facbook post is attached to this article.

Silver Linings Playbook shot in the area, including the Norristown State Hospital.
