Two things stood out to me when I was in Greenville: The landscape that looks like something out of The Last of The Mohicans (Michael Mann's version of the film) and a place that feels like "home". Could both be in one place?
Can the people be this inviting to those who visit the area or move there? Yes. Quite possible.
The setting we were searching to find that would fit perfectly for the setting of THE HOUSE had to be somewhere that anyone could find inviting, but also have something unique and original about it. That way the audience would sense throughout the film that Jack and Anne Peterson live a fairly peaceful life of contentment... until the day the FBI shows up to their door and dig up Jack's past.
While on our location scouting of Greenville we found many motels and also very beautiful inns. One of the inns we looked at was the Blair Hill Inn which has a very majestic view from its dining room and deck. The above view on the blog post is taken from Blair Hill looking out over Moosehead lake and the mountains and hills behind the lake.
Below are some of the property that is the Blair Hill Inn. There's something iconic about the look of this place. Loved the one photo I took of the wall that stands alone with doorway and window.
I asked a quesiton to many different people when visiting Greenville: "what do you want the world to know about this place?", so I could give that image to the world in the setting of the film. I received different responses, but the conclusion was a simple message: Paradise in a place called home... (stay tuned in, more updates to come.)
