Friday Flix No. 2: Exploring L.A.’s Cinematic Landmarks

Welcome again to Friday Flix, Dateline>City of Angel’s weekly feature showcasing my pick for the most interesting, offbeat and/or entertaining web videos sharing key words or themes with this blog. (Sure, you could sift through the vast online wasteland yourself, but why bother when I’m more than happy to do it for you?)

This Week’s Search: YouTube! Keywords: Los Angeles + History

The Result: An incredible exploration of the mythic stature that Hollywood has bestowed on numerous Southern California landmarks, created and posted a year ago by Blair Erickson. Inspired by a California Geography class, Erickson and company managed to create a video so compelling that it even caught the attention of CNN. Whether or not you’re seeing it for the first time, I’m sure you’ll agree the flick is still as captivating today as it was in April 2007. Roll ‘em!
