Film Vaults - "The Lot," Hollywood, California

I had a chance to visit an old studio lot in Hollywood, CA today. It's the old Pickford-Fairbanks Studios, later named Samuel Goldwyn Studios, and now known as "The Lot." Before leaving, a friend of mine took me to the back of the lot -- no, she wasn't going to strangle me -- to check out the old film vaults where they used to store the old very-combustible nitrate film reels. It was pretty surreal being back there. Check out the video.
