Why Hollywood in Sturbridge

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts has instituted generous tax incentives for movie makers.

If spending requirements are met, there is
a 20% tax credit for payroll expenses and
a 25% tax credit for production costs.
There is also a sales tax exemption on
sales to a qualifying motion picture
production company.

Sturbridge and environs are at the junction
of the Pike and Route 84, within easy reach
of Boston and New York.  Bradley Airport is
down the street.  There are ample hotel
rooms. We have as much Norman Rockwell
scenery as any place in the country.  You
want that typical New England town common,
we got ‘em.

As an asset, Old Sturbridge Village is
unbeatable. No light pollution.  No asphalt.
The perfect place for any costume drama.

Hollywood in Sturbridge is also about
everything that makes our region a
wonderful place.  From restaurants to
orchards to rail trails and wild spaces.

As movies are, for better or worse,
the American High Culture (TV being the
low), film reviews that I've done will
appear to no purpose.
