My daughter commented on that Disney movie. There's a scene in which
Pocahontas and Smith look through the trees down on a flat valley. My
daughter spoke up in her normal speaking voice in the middle of a
darkened theater: "I've lived in Virginia all my life and there's
nothing like that in Virginia."
Is there some source of maps specifically for movies?
