Willmott movie filming downtown

Watkins Community Museum of History is playing backdrop this week for the filming of “The Only Good Indian,” a local production by Lawrence filmmaker Kevin Willmott.

The production, written by Lawrence native Tom Carmody, will star Wes Studi as a retriever sent to find a young boy who escapes from the Haskell boarding school in the early 1900s.

Shooting at the museum, 1047 Mass., will continue through Wednesday.
