Netflix has released the trailer for “The Pale Blue Eye,” a Christian Bale movie with scenes filmed in several Lawrence County and nearby locations.
The storyline centers on a veteran detective investigating murders, assisted by a detail-oriented young cadet who later becomes legendary horror author, Edgar Allan Poe.
Production moved around Western Pennsylvania during filming and includes Lawrence County’s McConnells Mill State Park and Westminster College.
Late last year, the film’s production team transformed the Westminster quadrangle into a set depicting the West Point military academy in 1830. Several Westminster students and local residents served as extras. Other students and faculty from the School of Communication worked with the film crew.
According to a report, Westminster College was paid for its use of the campus with money that’s planned to be reinvested back into facilities.
The movie goes into limited theatrical release on December 23. That release date makes it eligible for Oscar consideration. Netflix will begin streaming the film to its subscribers on January 6, 2023.
