Rob Roy
1995
“Some of the scenes were filmed in Glen Coe, Glen Nevis, and Glen Tarbert.” Wikipedia
Named here by Glen Nevis’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Glen Nevis, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Highlander 1986
“Several films have been shot in Glen Nevis, including some scenes from the Harry Potter movies, Highlander, Highlander III: The Sorcerer, Braveheart and Rob Roy.” Wikipedia
