On the record
Direction one: what cameras actually shot on this ground. The searches were run whole: IMDb location listings for Granger, Indiana, and for Clay and Harris townships; the Indiana film record as compiled from IMDb data (the Stacker state list of movies filmed in Indiana); and the Tribune-facing record of area production. No production is listed at a Granger, Clay Township, or Harris Township location in any of them. The famous area production belongs to the boundary ground and is fixed there: Rudy (1993) was the first film made with the University of Notre Dame's cooperation since Knute Rockne: All American in 1940; the bulk of it was shot on location at Notre Dame and around South Bend in the fall and winter of 1992, its 1975 climax re-enacted at halftime of the Boston College game on November 7 before 59,075 fans, and its family-home scenes were shot in Whiting, at 1718 East 119th Street. None of that is this ground. Direction two: the famous film this region is loosely credited for but did not host. A League of Their Own (1992) is Indiana's famous baseball film, and its Indiana ground is the far end of the state: the Rockford Peaches' home games at League Stadium, Huntingburg, and the championship game at Bosse Field, Evansville, with the tryout scene at Wrigley Field, Chicago. No frame of it was shot in northern Indiana, and any credit attaching it to this ground is dispelled. The two-way verdict is therefore a documented negative in both directions: nothing famous was shot here, and the famous film shot in Indiana was shot 250 miles away. The class is no longer absent from the record; it is answered.
