Historical Production & Location Reference

Film:	Traffic Tangle (1930)
Star:	Nat Carr

Featured Historical Landmarks:

Downtown Culver City: The primary filming locale, famously shared with Laurel and Hardy's comedy movies Leave 'Em Laughing and Two Tars.

Production & Preservation Note: Traffic Tangle functions as a dedicated time capsule of the 1930 Culver City streetscape. Because the production utilized many of the same locations found in other classic comedies of the era, it offers viewers a unique opportunity to see these remarkably preserved architectural landmarks in a different comedic context.

This film, Traffic Tangle, was filmed almost entirely on location and is a great time capsule of downtown Culver City, California as it looked in 1930. You'll likely recognize several of the locations from other movies (Laurel and Hardy's LEAVE 'EM LAUGHING in particular) and miraculously, some of those locations are unchanged today.

Because of the extensive amount of location filming in this movie, the complete movie locations then and now video documentary has been broken up into two parts. This is the first of those two parts.
