I looked at IMDb before sending my query to VIDEOLIB. It's possible the info there might be incomplete.
That said, a 1978 Gene Siskel article says most of the film was shot at the Lester Armour House in Lake Bluff. The estate had a $40,000 rental fee which Aleka Armour donated to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago.

I think it is wrong in this case though. It was shot mainly in Lake Forest not Lake Bluff On Mon, Nov 1, 2010 at 4:12 PM, Williams, Alex O. <a...@typecastfilms.com<mailto:a...@typecastfilms.com>> wrote: Also, for many films on IMDB, you can click on "filming locations" at the bottom of the film's page and see what's listed there.

There is no citation, and it doesn't appear in our general index for our local newspaper. I can't find anything in ProQuest Historical Newspapers or Google Books. Does anyone have acces to Variety Archives or some other resource that might mention Robert Altman in Dubuque? Thanks.
