We have been hearing of some big budget Hollywood movies being filmed here in Montana. Not only do we have the #1 television drama being filmed in Montana. But, some big names in Hollywood have been temporarily calling Montana home for the last few months.
We recently reported on a western film project that involved Richard Dreyfuss, Nat Wolff, Anna Camp and Zach McGowan. The title of the film is "Murder at Emigrant Gulch."
Set in 1882, the film follows a former slave (Mustafa) who arrives in Emigrant Gulch, Montana, a desolate former boomtown now on the decline, looking for a place to call home. On that same day, a local prospector discovers gold – and is murdered. The sheriff (Byrne) arrests the town newcomer. But as the mystery of the prospector’s murder deepens, and the town’s earnest preacher (Jane) questions the accused man’s guilt, a clash between faith and the law threatens to tear the town apart.
