0:59.7	The boardwalk expands the length of the town and runs parallel to the solitary road.
1:10.8	The boardwalks are partially covered by wooden canopies that slope gently overhead, offering
1:20.2	shelter from the sun. They're elevated from the ground and can be accessed by a series
1:29.6	of wooden steps connecting them to the main road. This is the fictional town of Sweetwater.
1:43.7	It's a movie set modeled after the many boom-downs of the old American West that rose and fell
1:53.3	with the gold rush of the mid-1800s. The 1848 discovery of gold in Northern California

2:53.2	It's so lifelike that when you close your eyes, you can almost hear the sound of horses hooves
3:03.2	and the fierce cry of a bird overhead. It's currently off-season for this otherwise busy town.
3:16.4	The movie set is now welcoming tour groups to explore some of the studios and sound stages.
3:24.8	Each is massed by a rustic building, all of which were built from scratch.
3:33.5	You're joining one of several tour groups today, standing near the entrance to town.
3:43.4	You take in the scenery. There are a number of false storefronts lining the boardwalks.
3:54.0	One of these is a two-story building whose wooden columns support a wrap-around terrace
