Thanks for the help!

One of the Walt Disney Treasures box sets focused on TOMORROWLAND. If you can find out the names of the episodes there, the one where he covers EPCOT should be there. Once we're unpacked, I'll come back.

I think it may have been shown once in the Orlando area, and it was definitely shown to Florida politicians and businesspeople who would have a role in making the Reedy Creek Improvement District and Walt's EPCOT a reality, but otherwise it was never shown or released until the "Disney Treasures" DVD. A lot of folks have gotten the impression that the EPCOT film was shown on national TV because of the display and the clip of the film in the "One Man's Dream" exhibit.
