I was acquainted with several members of the cast. Misters Barrett, Loggins and Davis were active in a Fordham University-affiliated summer stock program along the St. Mary's River, near St. Mary's City - the filming locations. They reported that everyone enjoyed their jobs, which helped improve the slight script. Mr. Schaefer kept things moving, which helped improve the slight action.
Although the Mayflower landed in Mass., this filming location in southern Md. Was the site of another very early settler landing in the 1600's. A replica of their ship "played" The Mayflower here. Very recently, archeologists unearthed the original village.
Please note that the bio information for Mr. Barrett and Mr. Davis is incorrect but I was unable to edit thru IMDB's edit program. Barrett was a Fordham student who did not develop a film career. Davis was the Theater Dept. Director at Fordham-Lincoln center, helping to train many talents, including Denzel Washington and Patricia Clarkson.
