  • Bronson Canyon is less that ten minutes from Hollywood and Vine. Thousands of movies and television episodes have been filmed there. More movie good guys and bad guys died there than any other place on Earth. Now I knew that somebody up here was really dead. Not with blanks and blood capsules. Dead dead. No "take twos".
