    The site of a movie set

    "Contrabando is a 1932 Mexican film directed by Alberto Mendez Bernal, starring Don Alvarado, Dorothy Sebastian, Ramón Pereda, and Virginia Zurí. The movie tells the story of Hernández, a wealthy Mexican who smuggles weapons from the United States into Mexico to fuel an uprising.

    The Contrabando movie set, located in Big Bend Ranch State Park, 9.5 miles west of Lajitas, Texas, on Highway 170, is now an abandoned ghost town. The site features an original adobe building called “La Casita” and several later additions. Despite being damaged by flooding in 2008, the original Casita remains intact."
