In the formative years of the American movie industry, film-makers worked in such unlikely places as Fort Lee, New Jersey (and sometimes Havana, Cuba). But by the early 1920s, movie-making was almost entirely based in Hollywood, California. Major companies such as Warner Brothers (1923) and MGM (1924) were founded in Hollywood, and a number of elaborate and ornate new theaters were built in and around nearby Los Angeles, to support the growing film industry.
