Make Mine Music (1946)

Where Make Mine Music says it takes place, and where it was really shot.

Ten musical shorts, no live set: every place here exists only in drawings, except the cities and swamp they point to.

Scenes and places

The Martins and the Coys (1946)

Two clans trade gunfire across the hills in a feud in the style of the Hatfields and McCoys. Two young people, Grace and Henry, fall in love by accident, one from each side.

Set in Mountain country — A mountain feud between two families, sung by The King's Men.

The source names only 'the mountains', so no exact range is given.

Blue Bayou (1946)

Two egrets glide through the Everglades on a moonlit night while the Ken Darby Singers perform Blue Bayou. The animation was first drawn for Fantasia and set to Debussy's Clair de Lune.

Set in Everglades — A moonlit swamp where two egrets fly. Google Maps · Apple Maps

A large subtropical wetland in southern Florida; the coordinate is the region's centre.

Casey at the Bat (1946)

Jerry Colonna recites Ernest Thayer's poem about a swaggering ballplayer. The whole town of Mudville waits on his turn at bat.

Set in Mudville — A baseball town in 1902.

Mudville is the poem's fictional town, so it has no real coordinates.

Peter and the Wolf (1946)

Peter sets off into the forest with his friends, a bird, a duck and a cat. Each character has its own instrument, as in Prokofiev's piece.

Set in The forest — A Russian forest where a boy goes hunting a wolf.

The source says only 'a Russian boy' and 'the forest', so no coordinate is given.

Johnnie Fedora and Alice Bluebonnet (1946)

Two hats, Johnnie Fedora and Alice Bluebonnet, fall in love in a department store window. When Alice is sold, Johnnie sets out to find her again.

Set in Department store window, New York City — A shop window where two hats fall in love. Google Maps · Apple Maps

The source gives only the city, so the coordinate is the centre of New York City.

The Whale Who Wanted to Sing at the Met: out to sea (1946)

Willie, a sperm whale with a gift for opera, hears the papers say the impresario Tetti-Tatti is going to sea. He swims out to meet the boat and sing for him.

Set in At sea — The ocean where the impresario goes looking for a whale.

The source names no particular sea.

The Whale Who Wanted to Sing at the Met: the Met stage (1946)

Willie's dream of grand opera is shown as a montage of the career he might have had. In it he performs on the stage of the Met.

Set in Metropolitan Opera House (39th Street) — The opera stage of Willie's dream. Google Maps · Apple Maps

The Met's home from 1883 to 1966 stood on 39th Street; the film does not say which house it shows.
