Well it should be filmed here in BSG since the movie is about Big Stone Gap, IMO.

I am just glad that is isn't named "Rye Cove" the cartoon.

Seriously folks, everyone in this area needs to get on board and "push" this movie for thise area. When was the last time a major motion picture was filmed here? I remember Coal Miner's Daughter and The River(which was actually filmed in Hawkin's county Tennessee, but does anyone else remember any?

It is all about money. The State of South Carolina has offered several million in incentives. Va. has offered some, but not to the extent of South Carolina. Adri is really pushing for it to be filmed in Big Stone. This decision is made by the movie company.

It's the story of a woman and her love life in the Gap.

It was a quick read, very much literary fluff.
