Los Angeles is something to behold. From the sandy beaches of Santa Monica to the much maligned San Fernando Valley, from Joni Mitchell's Laurel Canyon to Tom Petty's Reseda, there is no place like Los Angeles. It is where waiters go to become actors and where actors go to become waiters. Los Angeles is the movie and television capitol of the world and the land of dreams. So, go ahead, call Los Angeles La La Land with a cocky smile on your face. It is our La La Land and we love it. It is the place where anyone and everyone has the opportunity to make it big and when you do I'd like to sell you your first home (and every home after that)
