1981 Hollywood California
(49)
Delicate reels of film filled with authentic moments; moments unscathed by scripting or Hollywood's polish, with raw emotions captured on film. Scanning the streets, it wouldn't be unusual to spot iconic actors in-between film shoots, camera-crew milling around studio lots, and maybe even witnessing a star-studded premier outside one of the classic theater establishments like the Grauman's Chinese or Dolby (previously Kodak). Just like peeking behind the glitzy façade of Hollywood, these precious mementos transport you into an authentic and intimate portrait of Tinsel town. After the sun sets below the fabled ""Hollywood"" sign and neon lights start flickering along Hollywood Boulevard, you're welcomed to the ""after-hours"" of Hollywood life: anecdotes told around dim-lit dinner tables at The Viper Room or Tropicana Bar, artistic and eccentric personalities who defined Hollywood culture. Remarkably unique, these films catch Tinsel Town locals living and loving – in its simplest form – during a momentous and transitional time, brimming with emerging filmographers and actors who'd be idolized as cinema royalty. This tangible, home-video collection holds historical, emotional and social significance within its frames: in short, an astounding view into Hollywood of an earlier era, seen through a humanizing, offbeat lens – an invitation to indulge and engage, without restriction or reserve, in the stories from that era.
