Columbus

Columbus is a town in the state of New Mexico, almost on the Mexican-American border.

In 1916 Indiana Jones and his cousin Frank visited the town looking for 'girls'(i.e. prostitutes) but they were caught in the middle of Pancho Villa's raid on the town. To this day, the Villista attack on Columbus stands as the only attack on US continental soil by a foreign army since the War of 1812.

The villistas ignored the teen couple, as they were concentrated on looting the local bank, but Indiana Jones couldn't keep still after he saw a Mexican stealing dresses from a shop served by a young girl. In response, Jones took a horse and run after the thief till he recovered the three dresses he had taken with him. However, by that time Jones had already entered Mexican territory and was made prisoner of the Villistas.

Behind the scenes
The entire scene in Columbus was shot in Texas Hollywood, a fake Western town in the Tabernas Desert of southern Spain. Texas Hollywood was built in 1963 to serve as set of European Spaghetti Westerns such as Sergio Leone's famous A fistful of dollars, For a few dollars more and The good, the bad and the ugly.
