The movie takes place in Vermont just before Christmas, but it was shot in the State of New York. However, the only time you see December and winter in the movie is in the stock footage as it was shot in the spring. Production used a lot of artificial snow to hide it in the close shots, but wide shots always reveal a lot of beautiful green deciduous trees, and bushes everywhere. Also you can see snow on green tree leaves, too. Furthermore, loud bird singing is heard through the day in the outdoor scenes and birds don't sing in the autumn and winter.
