Was filmed at Wharton, Columbus, and Lockhart (towns betwen San Antonio- Houston) during the hot Texas summer of 1964, when at same time was civil rights protests and deaths in the South east of Texas (Mississippi, Alabama, etc). Still remember hot, dry days that year and the flat ag land across south Texas. You saw a lot more whites then-now the region's very Hispanic.
Love to know which town Wagon Wheel Dancing Nitely club is located.
The playback singer's voice just doesn't match McQueen's face or speaking voice. And it sounds too "studio" for such a basic, live setting. Really jarring moment, this. Love McQueen and Remick though.
I agree with the comment here that says this isn't a very good movie. It's not bad but it's not all that good. Steve & Lee Remick make for a charismatic on screen couple; but the script just isn't all that good. It was based on a play by the late Horton Foote called "The Traveling Lady". And I wish the lip syncing by the late great Steve was better. He's just not believable as a singer. But thanks a LOT for posting this fascinating clip! Haven't seen this movie in ages!

@LittleYardBird It's Billy Strange singing for Steve McQueen. It's an overdub.

He deserves the beating and more for pulling a knife .

Cheerful, lively go-go music provides the soundtrack for a brutal beating.

Thanks for posting this. Is there any way you could post the scene where he goes crazy and tries to dig up that old woman's grave?
