The Springfield News-Leader reports that the writer of the show "Ozark" worked at the Alhonna Resort in the 1980s. That resort helped inspire the setting even though most of the show was filmed in Georgia. Alhonna General Manager Sheryl Elia says more people are stopping to take pictures by the resort's sign, but there hasn't been a significant increase in people spending the weekend. Читать дальше...
