好莱坞（Hollywood），又称荷里活，位于美国西海岸加利福尼亚州洛杉矶郊外，依山傍水，景色宜人。

起初是由摄影师寻找外景地时发现的，大约在20世纪初，这里便吸引了许多拍摄者，而后是一些为了逃避专利公司控制的小公司和独立制片商们纷纷涌来，逐渐形成了一个电影中心。

“好莱坞”一词往往直接用来指美国的电影工业，由于美国许多知名电影公司设立于此，故经常被与美国电影和影星联系起来，好莱坞是世界闻名的电影中心，每年在此举办的奥斯卡颁奖典礼则是世界电影的盛会。

Developed in the 1880s by Midwesterners looking for a sunny winter getaway, Hollywood was a small housing development outside still-small Los Angeles. But everything changed in the early 1900s when filmmakers from New York flocked to the area, where they could make movies without having to pay Thomas Edison's patent fee. It didn't hurt that the weather was perfect, too. Readers will take a journey from the Golden Age of Hollywood to the present-day film industry, learning all about what turned lush farmland into Tinseltown.
