Rolling Stone mentions UMaine in ‘Blow the Man Down’ movie review
The University of Maine is included in Rolling Stone’s review of the movie “Blow the Man Down.” The movie was the Maine International Film Festival’s opening night movie last summer at the Waterville Opera House. “Easter Cove is the sort of quaint port town that dots long stretches of the Northeastern seaboard’s coast, home to a community of fishermen and widows,” starts the review. “It’s the sort of small town that can seem cozy or claustrophobic; for Mary Beth Connolly (Homeland‘s Morgan Saylor), it’s definitely the latter. She’s hoping to go to ‘UMaine’ next year for college, something she’s already postponed so she and her sister, Priscilla (Sophie Lowe), could take care of their dying ma and tend to the family’s corner store.”
