The Daily Item: Most Marblehead shopkeepers see movie shoot as a boon for business.
As mentioned by a few actor friends of mine,This is why the Mass Film Tax Credits work,my view..one hand washes the other and everyone is happy at the end of the day type thing. We have to think here folks,take a look at to how many movies are being made right now in Mass,its like a ATM machine that is out of control and sending all that cash into Mass cities and towns,Here’s a list of the current movies being made in Mass right now and into this Summer.
GrownUps2 Shooting in Marblehead Mass
Labor Day shooting in Western Mass and other locations in Mass
The Way Way Back movie in Marshfield
The House Across the Street,Boston
Buddy Cop,shooting this Summer in Boston

One other thing here, Maine and New Hampshire should take notice and offer the same Film Tax credits as Mass does,It works and its the right thing to do all around. Maine is suffering some pretty tough economic times and its clear that Maine does not offer this to Film Makers,I know,I live here.We need to share in the wealth that the income that is spent when a big movie comes to town.
