Aerial view of the Carthay Circle Theater near Olympic and San Vicente, circa 1927, a year after it opened. Outside of Grauman’s Chinese theater, Carthay Circle was one of the most popular theaters where the studios like to hold their premieres. This theater saw the premiere of “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”, “Marie Antoinette” with Norma Shearer, “The Great Ziegfield” and the mother of all Hollywood movie premieres: “Gone with the Wind,” on December 28, 1939.
