What movie is this set from? [closed] - Set of shiny transparent amethysts grown together

While on a motorbiking trip across America in 2012, we had the good fortune to be taken to visit a movie set. We were not allowed onto the set itself as they were due to start filming soon after we left, but I took this photo from the end of the set:

  • This photo was taken on 5th October 2012 around 9am.
  • The location is in New Mexico, close to Santa Fe. We left Santa Fe that morning and rode for around 30-40 minutes to get there I think.
  • There was supposedly a well-known actor in the film (not necessarily an A-lister, but someone a lot of people would have heard of or seen in other movies).
  • There are two visible signs in the photo: one on the second building on the right saying "Denver Mining Supply Company / Fuses-Powder-Tools / Established 1859" and the one on the far back left saying "___ary Feed / Sale Exchange Stable".

At the time someone did tell me what the name of the movie was, but I cannot remember at all. I've checked through the list of Westerns released in 2013/14 but didn't see anything recognisable.

Is there a way to search movies based on when and/or where they were filmed? Does anyone recognise the set?



Best Answer

Thanks to the research by the commenters above, I am sure the location must be the "Bonanza Creek Ranch". Looking at the location on Google Maps it fits with where we were shortly before and afterwards. Doing a new search, there are 3 films within the time frame:

I saw this in the trailer for Sweetwater, which looks like the set from the opposite end of my photo:

The balcony on the far building looks different, but this is the only one of the three that has famous actors in it, and it seems the best fit for dates. I'll check it out if I can.
