Zion National Park

Grafton Ghost Town is an abandoned Mormon settlement in southern Utah near the Virgin River. This is the location where Butch, Sundance, and Etta hide from the authorities. Grafton ceased to be inhabited following a flood in 1862 and Indian assaults in 1866. At a particular point in Grafton Ghost Town, Etta’s home may be seen in the backdrop of the image below. It is reported that Etta’s home was constructed just for the film. However, the schoolhouse depicted in the film is really the abandoned church of Ghost Town, and the barn is also a genuine barn.

About Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is a 1969 Western film from the United States. George Roy Hill is the writer and William Goldman is the director of the movie.  Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) and the “Sundance Kid” (Robert Redford) are on the run from a US posse in the Arizona Territory after stealing multiple trains. Sundance’s lover Etta Place, portrayed by Katharine Ross, joins the other two as they flee Bolivia to avoid the posse.

The Library of Congress determined in 2003 that the picture was “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant,”. For the 10th anniversary edition of “AFI’s 100 Years…100 Movies,” the American Film Institute selected Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid as the 73rd finest American film ever produced. According to “AFI’s 100 Years…100 Heroes & Villains,” Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid was the twentieth greatest hero. The American Film Institute selected Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid as the seventh-best Western of all time in 2008.
