Dakota Fanning, a young girl with some developmental issues, makes her way from San Francisco to Los Angeles in Ben Lewin's film "Please Stand By" (Magnolia Pictures, 2017). She's a "Star Trek" fan and has written a script she wants to enter in a contest at Paramount. While trying to find the studio she's seen wandering in front of Disney Hall, 111 S. Grand Ave.
See the page about Disney Hall on the Los Angeles Theatres site for data on the building as well as many photos.
In the next shot she's walking by the Los Angeles Theatre, 615 S. Broadway. The film also stars Alice Eve as Dakota's sister and Toni Colette as the head of the group home that Dakota wandered off from. Yes, she gets to Paramount but her script doesn't win.
See the many pages about the Los Angeles Theatre on the Los Angeles Theatres site for a history of the building and hundreds of photos.
