'Edge of Darkness' wrap party at Sanctuary

It's officially a wrap for the made-in-Boston film "Edge of Darkness." Mired in minor controversy since filming began on Monday, Aug. 18, cast and crew threw a wrap party last night at Sanctuary, 19 State St. in the Financial District.

According to sources, Mel Gibson was a no-show.

The wrap party punctuates a tumultuous remake of the successful British miniseries including Oscar winner Robert De Niro abruptly quitting the flick on his first day citing "creative differences" coupled with Brit Ray Winstone replacing him, a tabloid rumor circulating that the married Gibson has been spending "quality time" on the Boston set with an Eastern European musician known as Oksana as well as a flurry of manufactured rumors including his reported bar hopping around Boston in August.
