HOLLYWOOD


A motion picture studio at night
in the "dimout' zone. which is where
all OF them are, is place OF strange
shadows and haunting memories.
Gone for the duration are the
outside night sets, the crisscrossed
arc lights and the blazing spots in
which actors once performed. There
are a few muffled street lights, an
occasional pair of automobile head
lights and now and then the dull
glow of a warning red light outside
OF a stage where motion picture
making is going on.
But, for the most part, Hollywood,
never a very active place in busi-
ness way at night, is quieter than
ever now.
Behind the grim gray walls Of
concrete and stucco, some produc-
ton goes on, but the principal item
Of work after dark in a studio-exte-
rior night shots-cannot be filmed
outside because of the dimout.
