Review & FAQ:

Adults and children of all ages will be utterly surprised about the number of movies filmed in the state of Oregon. Dating back to 1908, when the Fisherman’s Bride, was filmed in the state, Oregon has now been dubbed “Hollywood North”. The Oregon Film Museum in Astoria, is housed in what was once the Clatsop County Jail featured in the movie The Goonies in the scene of the opening jail break. This venue has posters and memorabilia of all the movies and TV shows filmed in Oregon. The museum is only closed three days each year, and admission for children six to 17 is nominal.
