Largest film-dedicated museum in North America, run by the Oscar-awarding Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, will be open to the public from next week
"The museum has really got to be the Parthenon of such places," says Tom Hanks, double-Oscar winner actor who serves as a trustee. It will be the largest film-dedicated museum in North America.
Los Angeles is finally getting a museum for movies — and it's about time, said Tom Hanks, as he welcomed journalists to a special pre-opening event. "We all know that films are made everywhere in the world, and they are wonderful films. And there are other cities with film museums. Artifacts of cinema, from such film as"Star Wars" and ET are displayed inside the Academy Museum Of Motion Pictures during the opening press event, in Los Angeles, California, September 21, 2021. Upon opening, the museum — run by the Oscar-awarding Academy — will be the largest film-dedicated museum in North America.
