If you knew the real Manchester-by-the-Sea you would not be surprised. It is a sleepy town located on the North Shore between Beverly and Gloucester Massachusetts. There hasn’t been any action there since the Thomas Crown Affair ran a 5 minute scene through there. Most of it was filmed where I grew up, in Beverly. But you get a longer credit if the name of the city consists of 3 hyphenated words.

The 1968 film is rated @ 79% by stupid tomatoes. I give it 100%.
I got to meet a number of the stars, and the producer.

Bah humbug! What does Stupid Tomatoes know!
