  1. > {quote:title=slaytonf wrote:}{quote}I'm not talking about films that have scenes shot on location. I'm talking about films with no built sets at all. There were sets built for Roman Holiday, great as Rome was made use of in the film.

    Films I've previously mentioned:

     

    *Jeremiah Johnson* -- A warm, tight cabin built in snowbound country.

     

    *The Unforgiven* -- The sodhouse with cattle grazing on top, and another settler's home viewed only from the outside.

     

    Do these structures disqualify these films, by your standards?

  2. Some others come to mind.

     

    *The Unforgiven* (1960), directed by John Huston, not to be confused with Clint Eastwood's 1990s movie with a similar title. Filmed in the area around Durango, Mexico. Desert vistas, distant mountains, good use of low-angle shots to show off the pale blue, cloud-dappled sky.

     

    *The Law and Jake Wade* (1958) In California Lone Pine area. Made use of an existing Gold Rush ghost town. Very impressive mountain scenery, well-used.

     

    ...and there's always *Jeremiah Johnson*, filmed mostly in a State Park in Utah. 'nuf said.
