Rare 1940s Hollywood Aerials: Freeway, Studios & Cahuenga Pass

Soar above Hollywood, California, in this rare, silent black and white aerial footage, likely shot in the late 1940s. This film provides an incredible historical perspective on the development of Los Angeles, its film industry, and its infrastructure. Hollywood Landmarks (0:00): Get sweeping views of the Hollywood area, including prominent sites like the Hollywood Bowl, Hollywood Boulevard, and key downtown buildings, offering a unique glimpse into the post-WWII city. The Hollywood Freeway (6:58): A highlight is the aerial view of the newly developing Hollywood Freeway at the Cahuenga Pass, clearly showing the Pacific Electric interurban tracks running down the median—a crucial snapshot of early LA transportation. Film Studio Views (8:04): The reel includes fantastic overhead shots of a major film studio complex (possibly Warner Bros. or Columbia in Burbank), revealing the backlots and sound stages crucial to the Golden Age of Hollywood. NOTE TO VIEWERS: As noted by reviewers, this amazing historical footage appears to have been flipped horizontally (in reverse) during the copying process. Use landmarks like Grauman's Chinese Theatre and the Taft Building to orient yourself!
