Glenn Tryon - 45 Minutes From Hollywood (1926) - Filming Locations
After Harold Lloyd departed Hal Roach Studios to launch his own production company, the studio cast actor Glenn Tryon to lead a new series of silent comedy shorts. One of the most notable entries, 45 Minutes From Hollywood, serves as a stunning time capsule of the era.
Unlike many lost landmarks of the silent film era, nearly all the 1926 filming locations in this movie remain intact. Viewers can see remarkably preserved views of Hollywood Boulevard and Main Street in downtown Culver City. For fans of silent film history, this short offers a rare "Then and Now" look at Los Angeles area streets that have remained virtually unchanged for a century.
