My book review of 10050 CIELO DRIVE: A VINTAGE LOOK AT AN HISTORIC HOUSE (Sharon Tate Books) by George E. Smith…..
Author/collector George E. Smith has long been an authority of the house once located at 10050 Cielo Drive and its many occupants, from its building in 1941 until its demolition in 1994. In his privately published 10050 CIELO DRIVE: A VINTAGE LOOK AT AN HISTORIC HOUSE, a loving tribute to the rustic French country designed property, author Smith has accomplished a very unique and sentimental look at the history of this beautiful, and eventually tragic, estate once located in the hills of Hollywood.
Originally designed and constructed in 1941 high in the hills overlooking Hollywood, when the film actress Michele Morgan (PASSAGE TO MARSEILLE) lived there the house reflected a charming French country motif, the interiors, contemporary and airy, yet with a simplistic country flair which in turn offered a comfortable and relaxing soothing air. The author includes dozens of historical black-and-white and color photographs of the home and adjoining property featuring Ms. Morgan as well as the house’s subsequent residents including Lillian Gish, who rented it beginning in 1946. Throughout its history there were many surprising residents at 10050 Cielo Drive. Such stars as Oscar-winning actor George Chakiris, pop singer Mark Lindsey, Henry Fonda, Samantha Eggar, and Candice Bergen and Terry Melcher. In 1969 the house was rented by Roman Polanski and Sharon Tate……
This book, 10050 CIELO DRIVE: A VINTAGE LOOK AT AN HISTORIC HOUSE, is an invaluable and beautiful homage to the history of the house with hundreds of contemporary color and black-and-white photos, many gleaned from the movie magazines of the era. It’s tragedy in 1969 today overshadows its rich history, which author George E. Smith has captured brilliantly within its pages. Throughout the story of the house, one longs for the Golden Age of Hollywood when life and fantasy were mixed into reality, and life possibly was not so cruel. BRAVO to George E. Smith for this loving tribute…..
