The second largest individual set
constructed by M-G-M this year,
surpassed only by the vast jungle
river setting for “Malaya,” was
built for M-G-M’s spectacular out
door drama, “Ambush,” starring
Robert Taylor, John Hodiak and
Arlene Dahl at the Capitol Theatre
starting Sunday.
The set, covering more than five
acres of ground, is a duplication of
an early frontier Army post, and
includes everything from head
quarters, barracks, officer’s quar
lers, mess hail, stables, barns,
shooting ranges, and even a black
smith shop.
The new picture, filmed largely!
j on location near Gallup, New Mex
: ico, has Robert Taylor in his first
, Western role since the memorable
| "Billy the Kid.” He enacts a dar
| ing scout who leads troops in the
| capture of a cunning Indian war
rior. More than 300 performers are
i seen in the action film, among
them 115 full-blooded Indians who
appear in the spectacular battle
sequences. The “animal” cast alone
required 125 cavalry horses, 115
Indian ponies and 73 mules.
