Ponder which came first—the Old West or Hollywood's rendition of it?—at Frontier Movie Town on Kanab's Center Street. Stroll a planked sidewalk past the jail, livery, boarding house, general store, and log and adobe dwellings, all part of original set designs preserved from such films as Black Bart (1948), The Desperate Hours (1955), One Little Indian (1973), and The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976). All is silent on gunslingers row, where Clint Eastwood shot 'em up as outlaw Wales. But long johns on a clothesline, saddles on hitching posts, and a pine-box coffin impart an ominous feeling of action to come. Just wait till dusk.

Tip:
Dine at Frontier Movie Town on Dutch oven feasts or outdoor barbecues ($16-$20) and catch a live spoof of Westerns while sitting in a covered wagon. Don a costume and join in reenactments of gun battles at sundown.
