Filmmaker coming to Jonesport
By Nancy Beal
For the second time in a decade, Jonesport will become a movie set. The first film endeavor was entitled “To Keep the Light” and used Moosepeake Lighthouse as the backdrop for a nineteenth-century story about perseverance on that harsh landscape. Later this month, Maddie Jones, a 26-year-old Pennsylvania film student, will borrow from the Moosabec seascape to create a nostalgic story entitled “Beyond Us,” reaching back into the childhood of two friends coping with modern-day problems.
