A picture taken of Grauman's Chinese Theatre located in Hollywood, California. The most spectacular theatre opening in motion picture history belonged to the grand opening of Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood in May 18, 1927. The theatre rises 90-feet high and two gigantic coral red columns topped by wrought iron masks hold aloft the bronze roof. Between the columns is a 30-foot high dragon carved from stone. Guarding the theatre entrance to this day are the two original giant Heaven Dogs brought from China. The Chinese Theatre in is the most famous movie theatre in the world. Millions of visitors come here each year, most of them drawn by its legendary forecourt with its footprints of the stars.
