Where Was "The Sinner" Filmed?

Filming Locations in Nova Scotia

"The Sinner," particularly its later seasons, was filmed extensively in Nova Scotia, Canada. Key locations include Dartmouth and Lunenburg, as well as various spots along the South Shore [1:1][1:2]. Dartmouth's Portland Street was notably used for some scenes, with other potential filming sites including Prince Street apartments, Dominion Diving, and possibly Kings Wharf [1:4]. The choice of Nova Scotia over Maine, where the story is set, suggests logistical or financial advantages [1:7].

Local Engagement and Impact

The filming of "The Sinner" in Nova Scotia has generated local interest and excitement, with residents spotting familiar locations on screen [1:6]. The presence of such productions in the area is seen as a positive development, potentially paving the way for more film projects to choose Nova Scotia as a filming location in the future [1:11].

Plot Context and Setting

In the season being discussed, the plot involves a retired Detective Ambrose living in Maine who becomes involved in a murder mystery concerning a lobster fisherman [1:3]. This storyline aligns well with the coastal settings available in Nova Scotia, making it an ideal stand-in for Maine.

Overall, "The Sinner" utilized a variety of picturesque and practical locations within Nova Scotia, which not only provided a fitting backdrop for the series' narrative but also contributed to the region's growing reputation as a viable option for major productions.

ORIGINAL POST

Portland street was closed down from Alderney to Prince yesterday morning, got to watch Bill Pullman run a few scenes, then saw them doing a few scenes at Dominion Diving along the waterfront trail later on.

Pretty cool to see these huge Netflix productions using our city.

For sure, I’m not sure how many they did in Dartmouth cause they were staging off Canal St, but I’d say Prince St apts, Portland St (Tate Shop, Canteen, maybe Sprout Therapy), Dominion Diving and possibly Kings Wharf might make appearances just based off what I saw.

I'm wondering if this will be a regular thing or if it's only a temporary blip for productions looking for relatively safe and/or available regions to film in.

I'd love to get the industry back to the 2010-ish point where several major productions were filming in NS at any given time.

daaodannach · OP · 4 years ago

Hopefully a more regular thing. I think every production of this size that has success in the area will make it more likely for similar ones to consider working here. They picked NS over actually filming in Maine (which is where the season is based), so cost and location wise it must have won out.

The Missing on Amazon Prime, but only season 2 (it's an anthology so you can start anywhere). Incredible story, very complex with multiple timelines. The main detective has a lot of similarities to Bill Pullman's character. Super satisfying.

Season 1 has some good aspects but a terrible ending.

Not OP but Sinners is the best movie I’ve seen in a very long time. I’d be very surprised if see another film this year that I felt was more deserving of best screenplay, and take your pick of all the other awards because the movie itself is a masterpiece.

Saw it last week, enjoyed it more than I thought I would as I'm not typically a horror fan - but it's not really a horror film of the sort I tend to think of.

And the music's great, obviously.
