The history about Hollywood

In cinema's earliest days, the film industry was based in the nation's theatrical center, New York, and most films were made in New York or New Jersey. Beginning in 1908, however, a growing number of filmmakers located in southern California, drawn by cheap land and labor, the ready to use different of scenery, and a climate ideal for year-round outdoor filming. Contrary to popular mythology, movie-makers did not move to Hollywood to escape the film trust; the first studio to move to Hollywood, Selig, was actually a trust member.

Hollywood had become the world's film capital in the early 1920s. All the films which produced by Hollywood showed in the United States were received 80 percent of the revenue from films shown abroad. During the '20s, Hollywood bolstered its position as world leader by recruiting many of Europe's most talented actors and actresses and it became more and more famous around world.
