Miranda Gaines, the irrepressible heroine of Miranda and the Movies, and her aunt Lucy head west from New Jersey to Hollywood, where they join their friends in The American Moving Picture Company. Miranda experiences the boomtown excitement of 1915 Hollywood, signing on with the young independent film company. The seat-of-the-pants entrepreneurship of America's original filmmakers--their ongoing struggles and remarkable achievements--is vividly captured through the eyes of a spunky girl who's eager for the cameras to roll.
