Description:
This exotic movie palace was commissioned by theater chain owner Sid Grauman in 1927. On opening nights in the 1930s, crowds often turned out to glimpse arriving stars. Crowds still appear today but mainly to see the 200-plus celebrity footprints immortalized in concrete on the sidewalk outside the lobby. The theater still holds red-carpet premieres frequently, and stars attend in style. If you purchase a movie ticket for the still-operating facility, make sure to request the main theater – two adjoining halls were added in 1980.
