Anecdotes

Natchez Trace is a 1960 American film starring Zachary Scott, Marcia Henderson, and William Campbell, produced by Lloyd Royal and Tom Garraway, and directed by Alan Crosland Jr. The now-lost film was based on a novel of the same name by William Bradford Huie.

Production

The film premiered in Waynesboro, Tennessee, near where filming took place in Perry County, Tennessee and Wayne County, Tennessee in 1957. It is possible that some filming took place in or near Meridian, Mississippi, where the production company was headquartered.

Prior to filming commencing, both the film's director and second lead were swapped. Actor Gene Nelson was originally cast as the film's second lead. However, the role was given to William Campbell after Nelson was hospitalized following an injury sustained when a horse fell on him during rehearsals near Hohenwald, Tennessee.
