Around the World in 80 Days received the Disney treatment in June of 2004. While Phileas Fogg intends to set a speed record, The Straight Story tells the tale of a man who makes a very slow journey in the hopes of family reconciliation. The lavish musical South Pacific (1958) was also shot in Todd A-O.
