  Cute little museum with lots of memorabilia from the old west movie shoots that were done in the area. $5 well spent, and be sure to see the documentary film.

  This little museum is obviously lovingly cared-for and sort of fun, but not was a huge wow for me. The best part was the 15-minute movie about the history movie-making in Lone Pine. I did feel that some of the exhibits could have used more explanation and that the museum didn't flow in a way that truly explained the history of the place in a coherent way. Also, much of it did not contain memorabilia directly related to movie-making in Lone Pine other than movie posters. Still, it's a cute little museum and fun for a quick stop-in.

  We loved every moment we stayed in Lone Pine and our only regret was not staying for at least an extra day. The Alabama Hills is the area associated with the film industry and Beverley and Jims Museum provide an excellent history of the events which I gather go back to the early 20's. There are lots to see and you can wander around and take pictures of the exhibits. There was loads to see and lots of amazing information and items donated to the museum. From a full size stage coach and car to clothes worn by the likes of John Wayne.We loved it and it made our drive around the Hills that bit more special. Lots of the names were from the era when my father was a boy and I know had he been able to travel he would have been amazed by it all.Whether young or old this place is well worth the visit.

  As I was passing through Lone Pine again, I had to visit the The Western Movie Museum for the second time. It did not disappoint.Since my last visit in June 2012 a whole lot of new exhibits to do with the making of Django Unchained have been added making it even more fascinating.The original movie poster displays are fantastic.I would highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.Thanks again.

  We loved this place. The displays and props are great. Make sure you watch the short film while your there, if your 50 Plus, you'll feel nostalgic for the old times and maybe a bit sad. Must See!

  What made our visit to this museum was the curator - we arrived just as it had closed having misread the summer closing time rather than the winter one. Not only did she let us in, she also gave us a personal guided tour around the museum, delaying her own finish time. Such a wonderful collection of items relating to films and TV series made in the area - the Lone Ranger, the car Humphrey Bogart drove in one of his films, a stage coach from one of the many Westerns, outfits worn, original posters for films produced long ago, props - I could go on but you really need to visit and see for yourself. A 'star' attraction in Lone Pine, not to be missed and all for just a $5 donation per person.

  The small admission charge is worth it, to see all the memorabilia and the DVD giving the history of movie making in Lone Pine

  If you like movies, television, history, fantasy or the Old West young and old will enjoy. The museum is not huge but it is organized, clean and filled with interesting and fun displays. I saw young children so excited about all the "fun stuff" to see. The museum also has an informative 15 minute movie and a wonderful gift shop. Come in and enjoy!

  If you love old western movies a trip to Lone Pine is worth the trip. I have been to the film festival several times and have always had fun. The museum is full of artifacts from old time westerns and other movies that have been shot in the rocks close to the town.
