Tax breaks for Leo, Marky Marky and more

Massachusetts granted $46 million in tax credits to the 2021 Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence film "Don't Look Up," the most the state has ever dished out for a Hollywood production, reports the Boston Globe .

Why it matters: Lawmakers made the tax credit for films and television permanent in 2021 after a debate over whether the breaks boost the local film industry or just pad Hollywood's bottom line.

The intrigue : Here are some other movies and TV shows that got good deals for filming in Massachusetts:

• "Ghostbusters" (2016) — $26.7 million
• "Patriots Day" with Mark Wahlberg (2016) — $15.7 million
• "Julia" (2022) — $12.9 million
• "Kevin Can F**k Himself" (2021) — $10.3 million
• "Godmothered" (2020) — $8.2 million
