Extra credit

Flat-up broke? Before you go through with the kidney donation, the Four Corners Film Office may have a better, less painful solution.

The local film production agency announced a call for extras for the Scott Cooper Western “Hostiles” being filmed  in Chama on Sept. 20.

Described as a “classic Western,” the film is set in 1892 and follows the story of an Army captain who reluctantly escorts a Cheyenne chief and his family through dangerous territory. Hijinks ensue – or not. The film stars Christian Bale, Rosamund Pike and Wes Studi.

The cast call is good for the whole family (granted you’ll have to pull the kids out of school), with a need for men, women and children in nonspeaking roles. The pay is $10.91/hour with overtime after eight hours (they work 12-hour days.)

Other productions taking place in the area include Animal Planet’s “Finding Big Foot” and an episode of HGTV’s “Log Cabin Living.”
