Dateline – May 1915
I hope that the “Flying A” movie studio alerted the residents of the area about this. For an episode of their silent movie serial “The Diamond From the Sky,” a fight between hobos and gypsies was staged on the beach below Hope Ranch. The gypsy camp on the beach is destroyed when one character pushes a rock down a mountainside.
“The cliff formation at the Hope Ranch beach served . . . and about 40 tons of earth were dynamited in order to get the . . . effect.” – Santa Barbara Morning Press, May 11, 1915
