It's not that rare that Hollywood is attracted to the Berkshires when it comes to filming scenes for upcoming movies.

That film contained scenes that were shot at Ventfort Hall in Lenox. How about "The Human Stain" starring Anthony Hopkins, Nicole Kidman, and Ed Harris? Scenes from that film were shot in Williamstown.
