“Angel and the Badman” was filmed in Sedona in 1946.
The movie starred John Wayne and Gail Russell and the cast included Harry
Carey, Bruce Cabot, Irene Rich, Lee Dixon, Stephen Grant, Tom Powers and Paul
Hurst. A western town was built for the movie. It was located by Coffee Pot
Rock in West Sedona. The set continued to be used for filming until it was torn
down in 1959. The studio also built a sound stage to film the interior scenes, which
remained in operation until 1966. The cast and crew stayed at the Sedona Lodge on
State Route 179, where the Kings Ransom Hotel is today. The lodge was a
converted CCC (Civilian Concentration Corp) Camp and was demolished in 1964.
