But it was Hollywood that became the centre of the film industry. In 1919 only 35,000 people lived there. Good weather and a beautiful landscape attracted many film directors there and in a short time, in 1925, the population of Hollywood rose up to 130,000 people

Actually, there were and still are many gates leading into fabled studios. Nowadays there are more than a dozen ones e.g. Metro Goldwin Mayer, with the logo of a roaring lion, established in 1915 as Triangle Pictures and for many years it was the most powerful one. Sony Pictures involves two other studios - Columbia Pictures with a logo of a torch-bearing goddess and Tri Star with the winged white horse. All kind of movies - dramas, comedies, thrillers and detective stories came out of their workshop, for example Men in Black, The da Vinci Code, First Knight, Cliffhanger and many others.

They were afraid to support such nonsense, but later changed their minds and the film made millions of dollars. Other successful movies were Jurassic Park and Titanic where the best Czech stuntmen acted.

8 Walt Disney Studio is likely best known to children because of numerous successful animated cartoons. The best movie of 1960 was a musical Mary Poppins, mixing live acted and animated scenes.
