Stories suggest that if the weather in
Flagstaff would have been better,
Hollywood would actually be located in
Arizona. De Mile stated, “We looked
around and said, this doesn’t look like
the type of country “The Squaw Man”
was laid in, so we got back on the train
and came out to California.” The
weather of Hollywood was perfect for
year-round productions.
In addition, Los Angeles at that time was
the capital of open-shop, non-union
labor. Businesses were able to exploit
cheap workers in large numbers. Film
historian, Robert Sklar wrote “as the
studios moved into feature production
and built more elaborate and authentic
sets, they needed skilled craft workers—
carpenters, electricians, dressmakers
and many other specialists,” Land was
inexpensive and available: the movie
makers built palaces and factories,
acquiring land from Lincoln Heights to
the San Fernando Valley and from Echo
Park to Santa Monica.
After World War I ended, it lead the
United States into a cultural boom. It
was at this point that “Hollywood”
began to designate the entire movie-
making machine. Hollywood, was the
home of motion pictures in America.
According to industry myth, the first
movie made in Hollywood was Cecil B.
By 1919, “Hollywood” had transformed
into the face of American cinema. The
1920’s was when the movie industry
began to truly flourish, along with the
birth of the “movie star”. Hundreds of
movies were made each year.
Hollywood alone was considered a
cultural icon set apart from the rest of
Los Angeles, emphasizing leisure,
luxury, and a growing “party scene”. The
rebirth of Hollywood during the 1970’s
was based on making high-action and
youth-oriented pictures, usually
featuring new and dazzling special
effects technology
.
“When filmmakers started shooting in
Southern California, they found many
further advantages that kept them
there: a variety of geographical locations
within a small radius – mountains,
desert, sea – and different architectural
styles that could convey a broad range
of settings.”
