In recent times there has been no picture which for awe-inspiring, breathtaking beauty and thrill measures up with “Stormy,” an outdoor epic.

"STORMY” Will Take Your Breath Away By Its Power and Beauty
I
NATURE ran riot in the mesas and canyons of Nevada.
The Painted Desert is famous throughout the world for its beauty of color and for its wild grandeur of form. The Grand Canyon is more imposing and a much greater natural wonder, but it is too overpowering to be brought within the focus of a camera. The Blue Canyon in the Painted Desert, on the other hand, is admirably adapted to camera purposes. Henry MacRae had long planned to make an outdoor feature which would capture the graphic thrill and matchless beauty of this wonder of nature. The opportunity came when Universal bought Cherry Wilson's novel, "Stormy." Strangely enough, the author had written a story about this favorite setting of MacRae's. No studio could possibly have reconstructed such magnificent scenic effects. All that MacRae had to do was to fit his actors into this natural setting and match the human emotions, jealousies and conflicts against the huge cataclysms which Nature had formed millions of years ago.
"Stormy" as a story of human interest could have been played against a studio background, but the real thing heightened the drama tremendously. There isn't one single studio shot in "Stormy." The entire picture was made on location; the interiors were photographed in actual ranch houses. The company, consisting of Noah Beery, Jr., the boy with the million dollar smile, Jean Rogers, J. Farrell McDonald, Fred Kohler, Walter Miller, lived and worked on the location where temperatures frequently rise to 130° during the heat of the day, and where blankets are required at night. The thousands of horses were recruited from 100 miles around, driven by
Indians and Nevada horse wranglers to this location. The railroad scenes were just outside of Flagstaff, Universal hiring a train and two train crews for the purpose.
