If anyone hasn’t seen Days of Heaven I highly recommend it. Absolutely stunning movie shot at magic hour. In my top 5 movies of all time.

Yep, Days of Heaven is a standout. Some of it was shot at Heritage Park too. You can see a comparison shot here -

Another one filmed at the park was a TV movie called For All Time, starring Mark Harmon as a guy who is able to go back in time and falls in love with a woman there. Just noticed the full thing is on YouTube.
Someone has made a handy list on Letterboxd of locally made films -

Of the handful I've seen from that list, The Valley Below, a low key drama set in Drumheller or thereabouts, is half decent (I know, a ringing endorsement). One not listed there is Circle of Steel, also not great but maybe worth checking out, about a group of oil workers in a remote office.
