VEAZIE — Maine Public is celebrating Christmas with three broadcasts of “Maine’s Home Movies: Treasures from Northeast Historic Film.”
The one-hour program is set to air at 9 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 26; 1 a.m. Friday, Dec. 27; and 2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 28.
The film is an interpretation of home movies made by regular Maine people over the past 100 years. In creating a wholly new piece, the filmmakers honored original creations lost in time — locked in barns and attics for decades, and now in a Bucksport archives.
“Maine’s Home Movies” visits old Maine scenes like Allan Preble Robinson’s horse-drawn logging on deep snow in the Kennebec Valley, Veilleux family lobster bakes, picnics in the woods, E.B. White’s saltwater farm and the Horovitz Collection of visits with friends.
