Duel In The Sun Film Location ( Squaw's Head Rock )

Remember the dramatic, climatic shootout at the end of Duel In The Sun? This is the exact location where it happened up on the rocks. This is where Jennifer Jones meets Gregory Peck at Squaw's Head Rock. She shoots him, and crawls to him..... on these EXACT rocks!

@MisterSkyTower Thank you very much! I couldnt believe my eyes when i first found this! It is just off the desert highway. There wasnt any signs for it or nothing. Not advertised. It is a nature trail.Yeah thos rocks were sharp as hell, i tried crawling on them but i scrapped myself up! LOL

@niceguy045 I hope having the opportunity of being there at least once in my life, so thank you to you of showing that is possible finding that place....you couldn't imagine how many times I saw "Duel in the Sun", in fact was after that when I fell in love of J. Jones and her entire work.

She was incredibly sexy in this movie... i could never take my eyes off her... such a beauty and she was PERFECT for Duel In The Sun.

@JoyceC777 Hello JoyceC77! I actually found this location when our family took a vacation to Tucson, Arizona. It was amazing! I was driving down the desert highway and I saw "squaws head rock" up on the mountainside from the road! I was soooo shocked! So I drove up to that mountain and I found out that the whole ending of the movie was shot there! I couldnt believe my eyes!!!! I still could of sworn I still saw some red paint from where the sultry "pearl" was crawling on the rocks!

@niceguy045 OMG! Hi NiceGuy045. I just saw your comment and it's over a year later! Thanks for the info! I would LOVE to go there and take some photos myself! How in the world did you EVER find it?

And, they wonder why we called it 'Lust In The Dust'.. Sometimes, I called it 'hurt In The Dirt'..

jennifer jones looks a lot sexier in this movie than she did in the "towering inferno" when she was dancing with fred astair, trying to rescue a cat with o.j. simpson or falling out of a scenic elevator.

"Pearl! Pearl! I love you, Pearl! Now . . . come out into view so's I can blow your frickin' half-breed head off!"

Herein we learn why very few passionate love stories take place out in the deep desert.
