SIERRA MADRE DOES HOLLYWOOD...AGAIN!


Sierra Madre has been a part of 
filming of many movies over the 
years, the latest is the blockbuster 
hit Oppenheimer. 

 Do you recognize any of the 
scenes from the movie? 

Does the fruit stand look familiar?

The landmark Greene and Greene 
house dating to 1904 and Villa del 
Sol d’Orol are in several key portions 
of the movie.
