This is another in my series of caches named after movies. This one however, is a puzzle that requires you to watch the movie to find the coordinates. The cache is not at the posted coordinates and really is only within a few miles. The cache container is a camoflaged pill bottle.
The Fugitive is one of my favorite movies. I've seen it so many times that I have lost count. In order to find this cache, you will need to watch this movie and pay close attention so that you can answer all the questions.
