These movies have Kentucky sceneries in the background. Have you seen them?

Kentucky has been the stage for many Hollywood films, from romance to horror.

Kentucky's sceneries are not new to the big screen as movies including “Coal Miner's Daughter," "How the West Was Won," "The Kentuckian" and "Stripes" were filmed in the state more than 40 years ago.

Many movies have also been done about Kentucky-related topics, most notably the Kentucky Derby and its winners (we're looking at you "Secretariat").
