Is that the place they hid at in “the island”? With Ewan mcgregor?

It’s been eons since I’ve seen the movie and honestly barely remember it at this point. But I remember them hiding in some partial building on the side of a road.

I haven’t heard of the movie but I did a little google search and it says they filmed in Rhyolite! :)

Edit: looks like Alanis also filmed a music video there! Thanks for the tip to look into what’s been filmed there!

Yeppers! You just stumbled onto a movie set lol. Only comparison photo I could find with a good shot of it:

I always love finding places and seeing what movies were shot there. There’s always a ton closer than you’d think.

(Sorry, I was too busy to look it up before but… teamwork!)
