TPWD Samples Scanned with CamScanner OLD MOVIE SETS ARE SCATTERED ACROSS THE LONE STAR STATE by Kayla Meyertons photos by Earl Notingham Tap any poster for more information THE ALAMO (196O) BRACKETTVILLE Director John Wayne used this 400-acre plot of land in Bracketville, west of San Antonio, to create a replica Alamo village for the Oscar-nominated 1960 Western, The Alamo. James Tullis “Happy” Shahan constructed this first movie set built in Texas; dozens of movies and TV shows have been filmed there since its creation. The Alamo set includes a full-scale replica of the mission, plus a cantina, trading post, jail and blacksmith shop. It was closed to the public in 2010. ! " # HOPE FLOATS (1998) SMITHVILLE Built in 1908, the McCollum-Chapman-Trousdale House is familiar to fans as the main house in the Sandra Bullock 1998 romantic drama. Visitors can tour the neoclassical-style residence in Smithville, where they’ll also find the façade for Honey’s Diner, a restaurant front created specifically for Hope Floats. ! " # THE LAST PICTURE SHOW (1971) ARCHER CITY Archer City’s iconic Royal Theater burned in 1965 but was rebuilt as an exterior set for the Academy Award-winning 1971 film The Last Picture Show, starring Cybill Shepherd and Jef Bridges, and the sequel, Texasville. Interiors were shot in a theater in nearby Olney. The theater was fully rebuilt in 2000 and serves as an arts center in this North Texas town. ! " # TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE (1974) KINGSLAND Always wanted to eat in the same room as a family of cannibals? Then the Grand Central Cafe in Kingsland (near Lake LBJ) is just the place for you. Reinvented as a fine-dining establishment, the instantly recognizable farmhouse was built in 1909 and includes the infamous dining room from the original 1974 Texas Chainsaw Massacre, a horror film inspired by serial killer Ed Gein. ! " # TRUE GRIT (2010) GRANGER Granger’s 100-foot-wide Davilla Street was paved with red bricks in 1912, only to be covered with a layer of dirt for the 19th-century movie set used for the remake of True Grit. When production ended, all the dirt and, well, grit was sucked back up, and movie stars Hailee Steinfeld, Mat Damon and Jef Bridges headed home, leaving the quiet Central Texas brick road to return to normal. !

SUBSCRIPTIONS Special Subscription Offers TUBING RIVERS Current Subscribers ARCHIVES A refreshing and relaxing summer day. 2018 By Kayla Meyertons January-February March When you examine a map of the 11,000-plus April rivers and streams that crisscross our state, May Texas looks like a giant water park. We have June 40,000 miles of waterways offering relief from July the sizzling June sun. For an easy way to cool August-September off, grab some friends and an inner tube, and October you're all set for a refreshing and relaxing November summer day. 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 Comal River, New Braunfels Although it’s the shortest river in Texas, the Comal River (pictured here) is long on fun. Beginning at Comal Springs in Landa Park, the river flows 2.5 miles through New Braunfels until it joins the Guadalupe River. The spring-fed Comal provides clear water at a refreshing 70–72 degrees, perfect for tubing. The City Tube Chute offers some excitement on an otherwise relaxing float. Frio River, Concan Cold and secluded, the Frio River is ideal for escaping the summertime crowds. A Hill Country beauty, the Frio passes high limestone bluffs, shady cypress sentinels and lots of scenic Texas countryside. Access can be found near Leakey, Concan and Garner State Park. Guadalupe River, New Braunfels The most popular river to tube in Texas, the Guadalupe can get crowded and rowdy on summer weekends. Ever-changing, the Guadalupe’s flow fluctuates with the release rate of water from Canyon Dam, from calm to raging. The Guadalupe’s fast water is shaded by stately pecan and bald cypress trees. There are plenty of outfitters to choose from between New Braunfels and Canyon Dam. https://tpwmagazine.com/archive/2018/jun/wanderlist_tubing/?utm_campaign=govdelivery-email-wanderlist-june2018&utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery 1/2 11/1/2018 Wanderlist: Tubing Rivers | June 2018 | TPW magazine Medina River, Bandera The calm, more secluded Medina River offers a picturesque tubing experience for all ages. Small rapids occur along the winding, crystal-clear river, but the experience is mostly one of beauty and relaxation, with only one caution: Look out for low branches. back to top ^ Like 13 people like this.

(Right) A restroom fashioned to blend with the set built for John Wayne’s 1960 movie “The Alamo” is grown over by weeds in Brackettville, Texas. — AP photos Texas movie set used by John Wayne fading away ime and Mother Nature are threatening to dismantle the Alamo. Not the original, but Tthe replica 18th-century Spanish mission and Old West movie set John Wayne built for his Oscar- nominated 1960 movie and that for decades was a tourist mecca and film production site. “It’s not just something that represents history to a movie set - it is now history for sure,” says Rich Curilla, the one-man curator and custodian of the now-closed Alamo Village. Alamo Village, a 400- acre plot of land about 120 miles west of San Antonio, was carved out of a large ranch in the late 1950s for Wayne’s directorial debut. Starring Richard Widmark as Jim Bowie and Wayne as Davy Crockett, “The Alamo” had an estimated $12 mil- lion budget, huge for its time. The 4-foot-thick Alamo facade was modeled off a 1936 map of the historic building - drawn up for the Texas centennial that year - and set construc- tion took nearly two years.

The Texas Film Commission has actively been in exist- ence since 1971, yet there has not been any published study that examines its history, how it functions, or its impact on the film industry in Texas. Using information gathered from magazine and newspaper articles, the State laws of Texas, letters from people associated with the Texas Film Commission, and interviews, this study explores these as- pects of the Film Commission. Texas has been popular as a filmmaking state since the early 1900's. It was through the interest of the State leg- islators that a film commission was established in Texas. Guidelines for the Texas Film Commission are described in the State Statutes of Texas. The goal of the Texas Film Commission is to encourage and promote both out-of-state and in-state production. It does receive assistance in promoting Texas as a filmmaking state from other State agencies, but is solely responsible for increasing Texas' popularity with filmmakers through marketing seminars and advertising campaigns.

  • Beyond Brackettville – Elaine Slubar
    SENIOR MOMENT Beyond Brackettville Small-town Girl Drives Movie Stars By Amy Morgan -year-old Elaine Slubar had an idyllic childhood. She grew up west of Uvalde on the Fischer Ranch owned by her mother’s family. Her home was built of river77 rock with outbuildings of D’Hanis tile. Trips to town took more than an hour on unpaved roads, so the family also owned a house in Uvalde, coincidentally two houses away from the home of former United States Vice President John Nance Garner. Third of four sisters, Elaine was a cheerleader and homecoming princess at Uvalde High School. Beloved family photos depict the girls sunbathing on the banks of the Nueces River that borders their property. Elaine followed her older sister to the University of Texas. She met John Sheedy, whose family had deep roots in Brackettville, his father serving as Kinney County Sheriff for decades. Sheedy, “the best dancer in five counties,” swept her off her feet. They married and returned to South Texas where the movie industry was changing the landscape. John Wayne had built a movie set complete with an 1836-era Alamo replica at Alamo Village in Brackettville. After The Alamo was filmed, the area was a popular film destination. More than 72 movies, six documentaries, six music videos and 13 commercials were filmed there, according to the Alamo Village website. Popular titles include Lonesome Dove, Arrowhead, starring Charleton Heston, Two Rode Together, with Jimmy Stewart, and The Great Waldo Pepper, featuring Robert Redford. Elaine obtained a commercial license and became a professional driver to the stars.
