The west Texas town of Marfa is a very small town in a remote part of Texas. The movie Giant was filmed here more than 50 years ago.
The cast and crew of the movie lodged at the grand (for its day) Paisano Hotel.
The Paisano is still very nice and maintained as a luxury hotel for those who like desert scenery and hard to get to places.
The movie was premiered at the Palace Theater which is across from the hotel. All that is left of any of the movie sets is in the last photo---the posts for Jett Rink's ranch sign and the wind mill.
