“It started as a mere village, so several of its early inhabitants have written, and in some respects it has remained one to this day. ‘The atmosphere of Hollywood both resembles that of a village and differs from it,’ wrote the anthropologist Hortense Powdermaker after spending a year there in the late 1940s: There is the same extroverted cordiality, but more stress on status as determined by income and power… As in villages, the same people are at the same parties, the same restaurants, the same clubs and the same week-end resorts. But again there is more emphasis on financial status. With rare exceptions, the people at a party are all in the same income bracket, and there is very little association with private people. The stimulus of contact with those from other fields of endeavour,”
Christopher Silvester, The Grove Book of Hollywood

“which is so accessible in most big cities, is lacking in Hollywood. For the most part, people work, eat, talk and play only with others who are likewise engaged in making movies.1”
Christopher Silvester, The Grove Book of Hollywood
