50/50 Drawing: Jerry Regier won $30.
Newsletter Drawing: Jerry Regier guessed Picnic and Carousel as the answer to this weeks question. Jerry was half correct. Name two movies that a part of the movie was filmed here in Hutchinson? Wait Till the Sun Shines Nellie (1952) and Picnic (1955) were the two I was looking for. According to IMDb other films to have a portion photographed in Hutchinson were Star 34 (1954 Short Film), Evening Magazine (1976), Fallout (2010 Short Film) and Snatched (2010). According to the Kansas Film Commission Ace Eli and Roger of the Skies (1973), was filmed in Hutchinson and Haven although other sources list Mount Hope and Halstead, although most of the cast and crew stayed here. Guy Gann mentioned the movie, The Gypsy Moths (1969), but according to IMDb this movie was photographed in Abilene, Benton (Airport), El Dorado, Wichita, Kansas USA (misc. backdrops) and Metro-Goldwyn-Meyer Studios. The purse increases to $40 with this weeks question: What was the location of our previous court house, what year was it torn down and why?
