lwhitehead Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 There were shows on History channel that features the dark facts of Hollywood and LA, I would like to point out I'm not trying to start a flame war or trouble. I want to create a mystery series about a master of id's sort of Phantom of Hollywood who helps an LA Police detective with movie crimes.

TheGayDivorcee Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Try Hollywood Babylon by Kenneth Anger for starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
