The best movie shot in Marfa, TX (pop. 2,400)
The tiny west Texas town,
Marfa, population 2,400, hosted back-to-back shoots of the Coen Brothers’
No Country For Old Men, and then Paul Thomas Anderson’s
There Will Be Blood. Marfa, TX, is still better known as the location where George Stevens shot
Giant, with James Dean and Elizabeth Taylor. 14 months later and Marfa turned out to be quite the mascot: both films are now
considered masterpieces.

I think of Marfa as being the foremost location of "mysterious light" phenomenon. I had no idea that movies were being made there.
