🎬 Greg and Tom Go to Hollywood

Buckle up for a whirlwind Hollywood adventure! Greg takes Tom behind the studio gates for an insider’s tour of Warner Bros., lunch in the Executive Dining Room, and a peek at his old office. They take in sweeping views from the Griffith Observatory, cruise down Hollywood, Sunset, and Santa Monica Boulevards, and wrap the night with music and cocktails at Casa Del Mar on the beach.

The weekend rolls on with lunch at the ASC Clubhouse for the Emerging Cinematographers luncheon, a film at the Chinese Theatre, and dinner at Musso & Frank’s. Saturday brings the “Jaws” exhibit at the Academy Museum, skyline drinks atop the InterContinental, and dinner at the Smokehouse with Ron Barbagallo. Sunday caps it all off with breakfast on the beach at Paradise Cove, screenings at the Television Academy, and a classic late-night bite at Bob’s Big Boy in Burbank.

🎥 Hollywood, friendship, and movie magic—all in one unforgettable weekend.
