Once Upon a Time in Almeria: The Legacy of Hollywood in Spain

Once Upon a Time in Almeria depicts the province of Almeria, in the far southeastern corner of Spain, the self-proclaimed The Movie Capital of the World. International stars-Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Peter O'Toole, Clint Eastwood, and many others-passed through the barren landscape. The photographs take the stance that the aura of Hollywood glamour was mostly fiction.
