Written by Julie Lugo Cerra, Culver City Historian, and noted film historian Marc Wanamaker, the vintage images presented here take us on a tour through the storied past of “The Heart of Screenland,” through the legendary movie lots bearing the names of Thomas Ince, Hal Roach, Goldwyn, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Lorimar, MGM-UA, Columbia, Sony Pictures, DeMille, RKO-Pathe, Selznick, Desilu, Culver City Studios, Laird International, the Culver Studios, and such nearly forgotten mini-factories as the Willat Studios.
