Hey David,
...I've read that the house was built in Halifax, and then taken there by barge... In any event, Julianne Moore is probably still the best reason to see that flick... (grin)
I'll bet you enjoyed it, I've always loved seeing places I know depicted in films, or on TV... Looks like you've got THE SHIPPING NEWS, and I've got THE SOPRANOS...
Best regards,
Jon
