Culver City History: Main Street As Filming Location Here's a dramatic example of urban evolution - an entire street has been removed! The view is looking south on Main Street in Culver City at the block of Main Street between Washington Blvd and Culver Blvd. When Traffic Tangle was filmed in 1930, Main Street went all the way through to Washington Blvd. But when the Culver Steps development was built, that part of Main Street became the entrance to the massive underground parking garage that sits under the entire 9300 block between Washington Blvd and Culver Blvd today.

The Plot

A man buys a new car and decides to take his family for a drive, but quickly ends up in a traffic jam and annoys a traffic cop!

The Filming Location

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, most 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.
