Hollywood
On the
Friday I presented a letter at the picture house in Los Angeles and received
a permit to visit
Famous
Players - Lasky Studio and we went to Hollywood by electric train
that afternoon about 6 miles away and then down to the
Studios.
It sure is some place. We were taken over it by a chap who explained everything.
We saw
Betty
Compson making the picture "Garden
of Weeds" with Creaves [James Cruze] as
Director and then on the next stage where
Pola
Negri was a work on "The Tsarina" [eventually
named "Forbidden Paradise"].
From there back to town and on to Saturday we did two sightseeing tours
around the place: the one in the afternoon was through Hollywood taking
in all the movie people homes. Doug [Fairbanks (Senior)]
and Mary [Pickford] have the
finest
of all...
