As part of my Albuquerque films-watching project, I'm liking this 2017 comedy "The Long Dumb Road," on Amazon Prime video. Not only are there a zillion ABQ and Belen-area filming locations, but the filmmakers arranged to drive past a local sculptor's house, just to include this cool human skeleton sculpture. Whatever else, these filmmakers are considerate of local artists.
