About 90 minutes ago I was soaking up some WGAW strike vibes at the Paramount Pictures’ Bronson gate. Some guy brought along a boom box and was playing some Motown, and some of the female picketers were doing a slow slinky shing-a-ling as they held their signs aloft and went “whoo-hoo!” to the cars that kept driving by and honking out their support. (Screenwriter Larry Karaszewski was calling it “the funky Bronson gate.”) Here are two slow-loading videos — one of the Bronson gang, the other of the picketers at the main Paramount gate.
