The bus rolls away from Hollywood Boulevard; wind teases the brim of your hat and palm trees lean like ushers pointing the route. From your open-top seat you’ll pass the bright walk of stars, the old movie palaces, and the abrupt green slope of the Hollywood Hills where clapboard stories meet real estate lists.
