The Museum of Film.

Movies are a great piece of this states fame, Hollywood is the heart of film and a museum is a great way to appreciate the film industry. The Oscar organization is going to debut an entire museum in L.A. in about 3 1/2 years. The founders of the museum want it to be more than just a tourist attraction, they want it to teach people more about the industry and create more appreciation. The project is predicted to cost about $300 million and will be apart of the L.A.C.M.A. (Los Angeles County Museum of Art) complex. This project makes me happy, because now the film industry will have a place to store their legacies. There are many art museums around the world but hardly any film museums and I think that this will spark the interests of man who want to learn or be involved with this industry. I look forward to the opening of this museum because now as a filmmaker I have somewhere to appreciate past work done by film legends such Hitchcock and Spielberg. I still question if people will actually come to support the museum and if they will find interest in the exhibits, and admire the great works of directors in the past and the great work done in the present.
