Arkansas – True Grit (1969, 2010)
If you go on Rotten Tomatoes, you will find rave reviews for both versions of it. As a matter of fact, the new version did even better than the first one. This is a film about a young girl called Mattie and a US marshal as they try to track down the man who murdered her dad in Native American territory.
Colorado – The Shining (1980)
When it comes to the horror genre, we find it hard to think of a film that tops The Shining in terms of popularity. There is a reason it is now considered a classic. The movie follows an aspiring writer and former alcoholic, who was played to perfection by the amazing Jack Nicholson. His character takes on the position of caretaker at a hotel in the Rockies. In the middle of a winter storm, the family cannot leave the isolated hotel as his sanity slips even further. “Here’s Johnny!” was truly terrifying.
