Adam Sandler’s next movie, to be filmed this summer in Essex, has already brought smiles to the faces of residents. The movie will bring the town $150,000 in property use and parking fees. “It could not come at a better time for us,” said Finance Committee Chairman Jeff Soulard. Beyond the “financial boon to the town” said Bob Coviello, owner of Main Street Antiques and member of the Essex Merchant group, “there will be considerable spill-off to local businesses, restaurants and antique shops.”
