    I lived in LA in the 80's and I also remember how the ocean waves were like that back then.
    Ahhh... the good old days.

    For decades Venice was called 'The Slum by the Sea', In the 1930s oil was discovered beneath Venice, the beach town became a huge sprawling oil field - oil fields don't smell good, no one wanted to live in that constant stink; the only people who would rent there were people who had very little money an couldn't afford the non-smelly parts of Las Angeles. After WWII European immigrants, including a large number of Holocaust survivors, and edgy counterculture artists "The Beat Generation" lived there, the rents were still low and the place still stunk. . The pier in Venice was built in 1966, There was a storm in the early 1980s, I don't remember the date, the pier was significantly damaged. In 1986 it was closed (after “chunks of concrete from the underside of the pier were said to have fallen near beachgoers) and scheduled for demolition. I wonder what year this film was taken?

      And now it is a slum again thanks to decades of leftist policies
