When most people hear the word “Hollywood”, they think of the American movie industry—famousmovies, handsome actors and beautiful actresses. However, Hollywood is also a suburb of Los Angeles,where ordinary people live. The two Hollywoods are very different.
     We use “Hollywood” to refer to the movie industry of the United States. The phrase “Hollywoodproducers” refers to people who produce movies in the United States movie industry. We use the phrase“Hollywood hit” to describe a blockbuster movie that probably cost millions of dollars to make. When wesay she is a famous “Hollywood star”, we mean an actress, probably American, who may earn millions ofdollars for each movie she is in. However, Hollywood movies do not need to be made in Hollywood, andmost famous actors and actresses do not live in Hollywood. Some of the Hollywood stars of today are noteven Americans.
      Hollywood is also a district in Los Angeles, California. It used to be the area in which many of the greatmovies producers had their offices and where most of the movie studios were located. This has changednow. The area has lost a lot of its glamour. Much of the movie industry has moved into surrounding areassuch as Burbank and the Los Angeles Westside. However, the district of Hollywood is still known for theHollywood Walk of Fame, the Hollywood Entertainment Museum, and the TCL Chinese Theater.
     Hollywood is still one of the most popular tourist attractions in the Los Angeles area. The magic ofgreat movies is still there even if the studios aren’t.
