L.A: West Hollywood: Brentwood: Rodeo Drive

These photos are from Hollywood, L.A Brentwood and Rodeo Drive. The two houses are from two famous films. The white house was used as Joan Crawford's (Faye Dunaway's) house in Mommie Dearest. Joan's real house at tree lined 426 N, Bristol Ave Brentwood had sadly just been torn down. The other cream house is the Baby Jane and Blanche Hudson residence from the Bette Davis and Joan Crawford 1962 movie 'Whatever happened to Baby Jane'. It is located at 172 N McCadden Place in West Hollywood. We also saw Marilyn Monroe's house from a rear laneway, but it is very hard to find. You will notice a window display on Rodeo Drive for Elizabeth Taylor jewelry. I love the facade of Hollywood High. It shows former pupils Dorothy Dandridge, Lana Turner, Carol Burnett, Cher, Bruce Lee, Valentino and Judy Garland. I came across the bronze life size statue outside the Hollywood Museum of Marilyn Monroe by accident.
