Grass Land Movie Has Youth, Intriguing Plot EDITOR'S NOTE: This IB the last in a three-part series Involving the feature movie "Grass filmed in part in South Dakota. OKATON South Dakota's future as a primary location for movie productions is very bright, according to Associate Producer Bill McCutchen of the movie "Grass Land." 'The state has a lot to offer the movie McCutchen said as he took a last and longing look at the movie set which he had created here in southcentral South Dakota. The rustic looking set, which involved a complete renovation of the little town, would never be used. And the'disappointment showed in McCutchen's eyes as he talked of his movie, South Dakota, and the bad luck his crew had experienced. "We had nearly 80 per ent of the picture completed with all of the filming done at our homestead site on the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation near Gettysburg, and at the abandoned Swiftblrd Job Corps Center near there," said McCutchen.

"We were all set to move down to Okaton to complete the film when the bad weather hit. "We can't blame anyone for the weather," he said. "We simply took a gamble and lost. The footage we were able to get here in South Dakota is but we just couldn't stand around waiting for things to break any longer. We were losing nearly $10,000 a day just on salaries." While the Max L.

Raab production crew heads back to California for warmer shooting, the classic 1900 town setting at at a cost of nearly $40,000, stands idle. The unpredictable weather that South Dakotans know only too well has sent the movie-makers i back to the 20th Century Fox lol In Hollywood to complete their picture. "Grass Land" started as a low budget picture with a total cosl of less than a million dollars but according to McCutchen, the delays in shooting and moving expenses have increased the estimated considerably. "I know that we have dropped John Carradlne; Robert Walker, son of Jennifer Jones and the ate Robert Walker; Scott Glenn; Gary Busey; Hillary 'hompson; Tina Herazo; Doria look and Mike Combs. In addi- ion, a portion of the 25 South )akota extras who were to have Included in the Okaton por- lons did see screen action at the Swiftbird and homestead sites.

McCutchen said that "the story will include a degree of witchcraft and will be a fable or myth about a group of young people during an adventure In the West. "The story is of two girls, abandoned on a Nebraska farm after the deaths of their father, an old Indian medicine man. and their mother, an orphaned wedlsh Immigrant girl," he said.

McCutchen said he would al ways remember South Dakota warmly, despite the streak of bad luck he and the "Grass Land" crew had here. "I'd like to return another day to do another picture," he said.
