Beaufort in the Movies
It has been 30 years since Colonel Bull
Meecham first flew his Marine fighter jet over the friendly skies of
Beaufort, South Carolina. Colonel Meecham is of course the central
character from the Pat Conroy novel, The Great Santini. The story
was so compelling that Hollywood took notice, and in 1978 filmmakers
came to this tiny sea island to scout for the movie. The rest, as
they say, is history. More than 20 movies have used the Lowcountry's
sweeping marsh vistas and jungle-like vegetation as backdrops for
successful movies including Forrest Gump, The Prince of Tides, The
Big Chill, and Rules of Engagement. For more information about
