If I'm right (rarely a given), it's also somewhere I've been! But quite some time before this movie.....

Do I have even 1 legitimate point in this game? I'm not sure, but here's another try:

I'll guess Wyoming. Maybe it will at least be the neighboring state.

The film Dances with Wolves was shot primarily in South Dakota. The main scenes were from Pierre and the Badlands, but this location was along Spearfish Canyon in the Black Hills. The Black Hills was the region I was going for. Since some scenes were in Wyoming and the Black Hills spill into that state, I accepted Wyoming as the alternate state for the correct state credit.

Scoring:
5 points (3+2) = Bob Juch who got the exact location:
Background for sign
Image
3 points (Full Credit) = Mentioning Black Hills, South Dakota, or a location within the Black Hills, as the primary answer
2 points (1+1) = Mentioning Pierre (state capital), or the Badlands, or location within the Badlands as the primary answer (the primary filming locations).
1 point = Just mentioning South Dakota or Wyoming or a location out of the above range in either state.

JJC (one point)
- littlebeast for the Dances with Squirrels avatar... awesome!
- Marley for suggesting tgirl's backyard before tgirl came along and said "getting warmer"
- Saucy for the Best Little Buffalo House in the Ozarks
- etaoin - Remember the Snow-Mallow


... and to the last two answerers: Yes, themanwho, you do have at least some legit points, and you get three more as Custer falls within the geographic region for full credit
and elwoodblues, you went for and got the winning neighboring state.
