A LOT OF CELEBRITIES WHO COME TO NEW MEXICO TO SHOOT MOVIES ARE ALSO HANGING OUT IN MADRID NOW. THAT’S A SMALL COMMUNITY WHERE THE MOVIE STARS GO AFTER THE CAMERAS STOP ROLLING. DREW BARRYMORE STOPPED BY THE MINE SHAFT TAVERN IN MADRID JUST LAST WEEK. ETHAN HAWKE ALSO STOPPED IN THE TOWN WHILE HE WAS FILMING “THE KID.”
MADRID IS KNOWN FOR BEING BOTH A COAL MINING TOWN AND A GHOST TOWN. IT’S NOW WORKING TO REFASHION ITS MUSEUM AND GUIDED TOURS, WHICH ARE SET TO START UP IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.
