A Little Casual History. Beauty And The Boss was filmed in the San Fernando Valley from the Warner Bros. Studio along the Santa Monica Mountain --- on the other side of the HOLLYWOOD Sign. The 1930's were the time when "Movies" (From Silent to 'Talkies' meant "Hollywood" generically.Still, Warner Bros. Filmed North of the Hollywood Sign in the San Fernando Valley. Still, another piece of history was this film was released in 1932 after being shot on the sound stage a good five to fifteen minutes by car-- before there were "Freeways" - from Burbank Airport (aka, Bob Hope Airport, etc.)Two minutes into the film, the Viennese bank president's plane lands. That airport was "United Airport" then, Burbank Airport for decades to come."So what," comes to mind. This was a historical location for American Aviation. As his plane taxis on the tarmac, the camera capture the barren land and the landmark mountains behind, barren of the housing boom following World War II.This is the airport were Amelia Earhart called her home base. Released in 1932, pictures and film exist of the first lady of aviation at the same Burbank Airport Beauty And The Boss did rare location shots. Amelia Earhart hanger her plane in the same time frame until her assumed death - July 2, 1937.Lost in the multiple airport scenes, such as where The Church Mouse directed her Boss' lover to the wrong plane, there were tumble weeds, no Interstate 5 "Golden State" Freeway Millions of locals, visitors foreign and domestic have traveled over the last some sixty years.Yet, Amelia Earhart Electra sat in the "Burbank Airport" hanger before being lost some five years later. It is a metaphor how the minds of girls, mothers and grandmothers lost track of this famed Airport in a throw away scene. A scene showing off in the distance Los Angeles Suburbs a desert local, and the home base of one of America's greatest aviators.
