In Steve Krause's and Teresa Henkle's book SEDONA GUIDE, DAY HIKING & SIGHTSEEING ARIZONA'S RED ROCK COUNTRY, there are movies listed according to red rock areas where filming took place. One can recognize many of the locations even with the encroachment of civilization. In those early movies, stagecoaches, horses, and cattle moved freely without telephone and power lines or residential developments getting in the way of camera lens.

When Bob Bradshaw, wrote Westerns of the Red Rock Country: 43 Movies filmed in Sedona, 58 feature films had been produced in Sedona (the latest number is many more than the 80 feature films reported in 1996, along with numerous videos and television productions). Bob was an "actor, wrangler, double, stand in, carpenter, and location coordinator" on many of those early films. Bob has continued to work as a location man in Sedona and Flagstaff.

See MOVIES SHOT IN SEDONA AREA, a list compiled from the Sedona Film Commission data, Bradshaw's book, Krause's and Henkle's book, and Sedona Chamber of Commerce. You must know, the list continues to grow!! Here is a web site that tells you something of what Bob Bradshaw is up to these days. Please refer to the Cathedral Rock web site for additional information on the movies made in this area. Tom Slaback has been researching the subject of movie-making in Sedona and particularly, Yavapai county, for many years. Contact him at PrescottKid@webtv.net or write to him: 715 Goodwin Street, Prescott, AZ 86303, if you have questions or desire more information. My list is incomplete, and intended only as a guide for making movie rentals or purchases (when or if the films are available!).
