Framing For Films
Fort Point Framers provides framing services for films made in and around Boston. We work with art directors, set dressers and buyers to come up with creative framing solutions for set decoration. We also help connect directors with local artists whose work is displayed on movie sets. Fort Point Framers designed and manufactured sleazy art for Jack Nicholson’s gangster apartment in The Departed. We also provided rustic frames for Adam Sandler’s country cottage in Grown Ups.
Our workshop is located on premises, enabling us to manufacture frames and output large format digital prints on short notice.
Film representatives should contact Larry Plitt directly.
21
We framed two very large nude photos for Kevin Spacey's Hard Rock Cafe penthouse. They only appear in the movie briefly, but they were fun to frame.
Bride Wars
Candice Bergen sits in front of one of our ornate gold frames for a really long time. Our favorite part of the movie!
Edge of Darkness
We enlarged and framed historic photos of Boston politicians and policemen to line the walls of Mel Gibson's gritty police Precinct.
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
For Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, we constructed large ornate frames to surround the many flat panel TVs in Matthew McConaughey's swanky bachelor pad. We also framed an imposing portrait of Michael Douglas for over his fireplace.
Gone Baby Gone
We provided framing for many of the sets in Gone Baby Gone. We also framed set design drawings which were given as a gift from Ben to Casey Affleck.
Grown Ups
Grown Ups was a fun gig to work on. We came up with a lot of folksy looking frames for Adam Sandlers country cottage and helped the film's art directors find local modern art to furnish Chris Rock's apartment.
Knight and Day
Cameron Diaz's bedroom was adorned with old photos of muscle cars we framed.
The expressway chase scenes were filmed in our neighborhood. How they managed to do 90 on these generally clogged and sluggish roads is beyond us. Go CGI!
The Pink Panther 2
Ornate frames for the Pope's bedroom. I hope we get brownie points in heaven.
The Departed
Much of The Departed was filmed in our neighborhood. Lunchtime crowds would gather to sneak a peek at Jack or Matt or Leonardo. We framed erotic art for Jack Nicholson's somewhat tasteless gangster pad.
