Lone Pine Film Festival
The Lone Pine Film Festival is an annual film festival held in Lone Pine, California, which celebrates the hundreds of films and television episodes that used Lone Pine, the Alabama Hills, and the nearby Sierra Nevada mountain range as film locations. Since the early years of filmmaking, directors and their production units have used the Lone Pine area to represent the iconic American West. Since ''The Roundup'' (1920), the first documented film produced in the area, Lone Pine has played host to hundreds of the industry's best known directors and actors, among them directors William Wyler, John Ford, George Stevens, and William Wellman, and actors John Wayne, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Bing Crosby, and Barbara Stanwyck. The festival at Lone Pine was held for the first time in 1990, then called the Sierra Film Festival. In 2014, the festival celebrates its twenty-fifth silver anniversary. Held annually over the Columbus Day weekend, the Lone Pine Film Festival is one of the most important Western film festivals in the United States.
==History==
The Lone Pine area was first used as a film location in 1920, when a movie production company came to the Alabama Hills to make the silent film ''The Round-Up''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Lone Pine Chamber of Commerce )〕 Other companies soon discovered the scenic location, and in the coming decades, over 400 films, 100 television episodes, and countless commercials used Lone Pine and the Alabama Hills as a film location.〔 Some of the notable films shot here in the 1920s and 1930s include ''Riders of the Purple Sage'' (1925) with Tom Mix, ''The Enchanted Hill'' (1926) with Jack Holt, ''Somewhere in Sonora'' (1927) with Ken Maynard, ''Blue Steel'' (1934) with John Wayne, ''Hop-Along Cassidy'' (1935) with William Boyd, ''The Charge of the Light Brigade'' (1936) with Errol Flynn, ''Oh, Susanna!'' (1936) with Gene Autry, ''Rhythm on the Range'' (1936) with Bing Crosby, ''The Cowboy and the Lady'' (1938) with Gary Cooper, ''Under Western Stars'' (1938) with Roy Rogers, and ''Gunga Din'' (1939) with Cary Grant.
In the coming decades, Lone Pine and the Alabama Hills continued to be used as the setting for Western films, including ''West of the Pecos'' (1945) with Robert Mitchum, ''Thunder Mountain'' (1947) with Tim Holt, ''The Gunfighter'' (1950) with Gregory Peck, ''The Nevadan'' (1950) with Randolph Scott, ''Bad Day at Black Rock'' (1955) with Spencer Tracy, ''Hell Bent for Leather'' (1960) with Audie Murphy, ''How the West Was Won'' (1962) with James Stewart, ''Nevada Smith'' (1966) with Steve McQueen, ''Joe Kidd'' (1972) with Clint Eastwood, ''Maverick'' (1994) with Mel Gibson, and ''The Lone Ranger'' (2013) with Johnny Depp. Through the years, non-Western films also used the unique landscape of the area, including Alfred Hitchcock's ''Saboteur'' (1942) with Robert Cummings, ''Samson and Delilah'' (1949) with Hedy Lamarr, ''Star Trek V: The Final Frontier'' (1989) with William Shatner, ''Tremors'' (1990) with Kevin Bacon, ''The Postman'' (1997) with Kevin Costner, and ''Gladiator'' (2000) with Russell Crowe.
In 1989, Lone Pine business and community leaders developed a plan to celebrate the film industry's heritage of using Lone Pine and the surrounding area as film locations to represent the iconic American West.〔 They invited numerous actors, directors, and producers who made films in the area throughout the years. The first film festival in Lone Pine was held on October 6 and 7 and was called the Sierra Film Festival.〔 Co-sponsored by a number of individuals and businesses, that first festival included numerous Western film celebrities, including Roy Rogers, Richard Farnsworth, Rand Brooks, Pierce Lyden, Loren Janes, William Witney, and former stuntman Joe Yrigoyen.〔 The festival acknowledging its "deep appreciation and great gratitude" to Roy Rogers, who made his first film in Lone Pine in 1938 with ''Under Western Stars''. Rogers dedicated an historical stone marker placed at Whitney Portal and Movie Road during the festival.〔 The bronze plaque on the stone reads: "Sierra Film Festival, 70 years of Movie History, October 6 & 7, 1990, Movie Flats – Lone Pine".〔
