The movie A Walk in the Spring Rain was partially filmed on campus in spring 1969, with UT depicted as a New York college. The film, based on a novel by Rachel Maddux of Tennessee Ridge (Houston County), starred Ingrid Bergman, Fritz Weaver, and Anthony Quinn. Area residents were chosen for seven bit speaking parts and approximately three hundred extras. Lucy Minor, a UT senior English major, was chosen to play the bit speaking part of the “sexy mountain girl” and was additionally selected as Ingrid Bergman’s stand-in.
