    Sedona Heritage MuseumSedona News – The Sedona Historical Society will celebrate the 70th anniversary of the vintage western film made in Sedona, ‘Pony Soldier’, on Sunday, February 6 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre. The afternoon of cinematic excellence and Sedona movie history will begin when doors open at 3:00 p.m.

    2022 celebrates 70 years since the release of ‘Pony Soldier’, which starred several Hollywood greats, including Tyrone Power, Cameron Mitchell, Robert Horton, Thomas Gomez, and Penny Edwards. As usual back in that era, Sedona doubled for someplace else, in this case cast in the movie as the Canadian Rockies. During the pre-film discussion, you’ll hear about how pine trees from Oak Creek Canyon were used to try to further that illusion.

    Historian Clancy Sage will share other background and stories about the making of the film in Sedona. Then, ‘Pony Soldier’, a 1952 western film set in Sedona will play.

    After the film, a special guest, Anthony Numkena, the child co-star from the film, will join emcee John Conway on stage. He’ll share his memories of making the movie in Sedona as a nine-year old working with some of Hollywood’s greatest actors!

    Lovers of Sedona’s landscape will enjoy the vistas that are backdrop to this Hollywood production that experienced 56 days of grueling filming, with cast and crew experiencing all manner of insults and injuries while in Sedona.

    Sedona Gift Shop

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
