More than 90 years has passed since Hollywood’s official film organization first proposed plans to build its own museum.Those plans are finally becoming a reality, with the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures set to open in 2019.
The project is underway at the site of a historic Los Angeles department store built in 1939.Museum officials say visitors will be able to “experience the magic of cinema” by learning about all parts of the filmmaking process.
Film historian Kerry Brougher has been named director of the museum.Brougher says the museum will include over 12 million photographs and 80,000 screenplays as well as props(道具),costumes and other objects from famous films.The Academy Museum will also feature Oscar statuettes (小雕像) donated by actors who won the awards.
Brougher says the museum is designed to make visitors feel like they are in a movie,too,with many interactive experiences.“You won’t necessarily know
what’s coming next,” he adds.“You’ll be in environments sometimes that make you feel like you’ve gone back to the past and that you’re in the area that
you’re actually exploring.”He adds that visitors may even get the chance to walk down a red carpet and accept their own Academy Award.
Currently,Hollywood only has a few possibilities for visitors.They can go along the Walk of Fame,visit movie studios or see the Dolby Theater,where the Oscars are presented.But beyond these,movie fans have limited possibilities.
Eric Garcetti,the mayor of Los Angeles says the Academy Museum will provide visitors with the chance to experience many different parts of the film industry all in one place.Garcetti notes the museum will also serve the hundreds of thousands of local people working in film-related businesses.He says they,too,will finally be able to visit a place that celebrates their own Hollywood movie industry.
