Where did the actors /actresses stay when they weren filming?
We stayed in a pretty nice hotel in Sydney and when we weren’t filming, we’d find things to do. I remember a trip on the Cabot Trail in a van with several other actors and crew. We’d be picked up from the hotel by the movie production driver in a van, get driven to location, check-in for make-up, talk with the director (George Mihalka) about the scene(s) we would be shooting that day, wait for scene set-up, shoot the scene in probably about 3 – 5 takes, wait for the next scene set-up and so forth until we were driven back to the hotel at the end of the day. That is, from what I understand, pretty standard on most films. From what I remember, they [the locals] were pretty nice. They seemed to be pretty excited about the fact that a movie was being shot in their town and I guess a few of them were lucky enough to get put into the film in some capacity. If I remember correctly, the majority of the shooting was done in Sydney Mines. [Here’s a little bit about Sydney Mines from Wikipedia: “
