It's your guide to L A , the unscripted way and tonight , shout it from the rooftops . We're going deep into Hollywood Movie history . Hello and welcome to L A in Scripted , everyone .
We're smack in the middle of Hollywood right now just off the corner of the famed Hollywood Vine at one of the coolest venues this city has to offer created by the remarkable Gilbert Smith . This is the best place to come watch a movie with your popcorn , a cocktail and the stars twinkling above you . We have 1000 seat classic theater underneath us .
When people come here , they book either a love seat or individual seats . So we have a , an eclectic set of different types of films all year long from the classics in the 19 thirties and forties , from romance to sci fi or eclectic fun films that are from the 19 eighties , nineties and into the two thousands , the headphones are made by sound off . They're stereo headsets .
Thanks to a man named Caro and a man named Smith and the theater forever named the Matalon . Now , one of the movies that played right here , the Thomas Crown Affair starring Steve mcqueen . Olivia de Bertoli in front of that famed actors home for a book about his remarkable life .
And then in 1932 I just recently read during the pandemic that one of the brothers was accused of laundering $12.5 million . So this has had a very rich history , this theater in the summer of 78 I was a young photographer and I met Anita Montauban . I convinced Anita to go out with me and we did some testing we presented and we never separated , got married and had 40 years of really the most wonderful life together .
