Old Hollywood Los Angeles Tour

Old Hollywood

In the 1910s 6 masonic Jews (who owned nickelodeons) moved to the outskirts of Los Angeles to make their own movies and avoid paying fees to Edison; and in doing so turned Hollywood into the “factory of dreams” (or a brainwash machine) that still is today — and thanks to some surviving movie palaces and studios you can go back to the Howard Hughes days

This tour would take you throughout the streets of a Hollywood: where long silent movies started being produced (like an assembly line) in huge lots during the 1910s; and where movie stars and executive created their “movie palaces” and Spanish revival mansions. The area is characterized by art deco architecture, palm tree-lined streets, and film studios turned into parks or museums. Hollywood was an upscale neighborhood in the outskirts of the industrial Los Angeles on the way to Santa Monica, where the robber barons had their beach mansions. According to the legend a man wanted to film a western movie in Flagstaff but he was disappointed by the landscape so he took the train to the last stop of the line which was LA. Once there he rented a bungalow house in Hollywood, and soon others will fallow linking the area to the new niche movie industry — an industry that was trying to escape New York due to the mafia tactics of Edison to collects the fees of his patents. In Hollywood movie producers could do whatever they want artistically and morally; creating a very decadent hedonistic scene fueled by drugs and mysticism: the new Babylon got created. By the end of the 20s movie production got streamlined into huge lots were editors, actors, costume and set designers worked as if they were in a factory; and there were 5 “factory of dreams” owned by Masonic Jews immigrants that monopolized the industry and made LA the entertainment capital still is: MGM, Paramount, RKO, Warner Bros, plus 20th Century Fox. They transformed the film industry from a small/niche form of entertainment to a massive brainwash machine that could turn a simple person into a star: for the first time ordinary people became more popular than religious icons, royals or politicians. During the economic collapse of the Great Depression many migrated to Hollywood in the persue of fame, and the Masonic gate keepers “of Babylon” took advantage of it setting cult-like corporations where rituals were performed for the gods while on drugs. Hollywood became a huge propaganda machine during WWII starting a rocky relationship with Washington. First the very protestant government used the Jews executives to promote the war but then when they realized how powerful they have become, the Supreme Court forced them to sell their theaters in 1948 putting an end to the Golden Age of Hollywood. The tour suggests having breakfast at the farmers market and the Paramount Studios Tour in the morning; then visit 3 iconic buildings in the afternoon: a historical mansion by Frank Lloyd Wright, the first film studio in Hollywoodland plus the Roosevelt Hotel; and once it gets dark a walk through the walk of fame checking out historical movie palaces and dinner at Chateau Marmont. If you have time maybe you can watch a movie or a show at one of the historical theaters.
