The Stone Boy is a 1984 American drama film directed by Christopher Cain and starring Robert Duvall, Frederic Forrest, Glenn Close, Wilford Brimley, Linda Hamilton, Dean Cain and Jason Presson.

It is based on the 1957 short story "The Stone Boy" by American author Gina Berriault.

The Hillerman family copes with the aftermath of the death of one of their children in a hunting accident.

The Hillerman Ranch had been abandoned for years, so the crew had to paint, furnish the house and groom the yard before production began.

Next they traveled to Great Falls, Montana to begin filming in the city, at a local truck stop just north of town, the bus station, and a saloon.
