Re “Establishing Shot: Los Angeles, CA” [May 5], by Kenneth Turan: Thom Andersen,
director of “Los Angeles Plays
Itself,” says that only a city
with an inferiority complex would allow itself to be called “L.A.”
Rubbish.
L.A. is about living a sovereign life. “Los Angeles” cares what the stuffed shirts on the Old Coast think about it. “L.A.” doesn’t give a damn what anybody thinks about it.
