Great overview of Massachusetts here. It's an AB roll and it's silent, but you can definitely pick up on it's vibe early on, as the film starts with the state's natural wonders and slowly goes urban. Great step by step, and you can tell this film was amazingly edited, lots of quick cuts in this. Very odd that I would enjoy it as much as I would.
