“Movie Shoot” (1954) 8mm Film Home Movie, Western, Camera, Crew, Stars, Mt Baldy

Film captures a western movie shoot in the mountains with a large crew setting up cameras and scenes with the snowy backdrop. It’s clearly cold as everyone is bundled up and the cameras have covers on them. Not sure which movie this is, but hopefully it was worth battling the cold weather.
