L.A. Is My Home Town

In this documentary, join Ian Whitcomb (singer of the top ten smash "You Turn Me On"), an ex-British rock personality now living in Hollywood, as he takes a tongue-in-cheek tour of the city of angels. He gives us a look at the 350,000 members of the southern California British community in this highly irreverent and very funny potpourri of Hollywood landmarks, Los Angeles history, and contemporary UK exiles! See him interview such personalities as consul general Thomas Aston and former British Ambassador Sir Peter Ramsbottom, record producer Peter Asher and "nude photographer" Roy Dean. Ian shows us the British expatriates, all sizes, shapes and types, from rock stars to flesh photographers. Even blue boy hanging at the Huntington gallery gets a mention. He also points out how many Englishmen have influenced the growth of his adopted home, such as Charlie Chaplin, Ronald Colman and others.
