With apologies to Disney fans, you won’t find Pocahontas on this list of the best movies based on true stories. Not because it’s animated, or because of the story’s distance from reality (her actual name wasn’t even Pocahontas!), but because there are simply much better movies based on real events: just see A League of Their Own, The Big Short, or Marie Antoinette.

Virginia fans of The Young and the Restless have asked where Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) has been. She has not been seen or mentioned in Genoa City for quite a while.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now.
