Why in Database: In this film, the turtles are only mentioned in dialogue, in the form of comparisons. One of the main characters says to the main character, who learns to manage a ship that she can handle the river like an old turtle. Later, the same character refers to the captain of another ship as the old snapping turtle.
Say, you takin’ to the river just like an old turtle.
It’s old Captain Eli. Want to just give that old snappin’ turtle a toot here to show him my boat can toot louder than his.
