Click It. BEAT picks of the week.

A cute film about young love, by a young California director--Like Crazy. It's showing at the ArcLight and the Landmark, among other Los Angeles-area theaters.

Another easy-on-the eyes college (and beyond) romance--One Day--came out on DVD this week. Just after its star Anne Hathaway's real-life engagement.

Hollywood holiday cards!

A signed copy of Marilyn: Intimate Exposures would make a great Christmas gift for any fan of the bombshell--and really, who isn't?

Marilyn's favorite face soap: Erno Laszlo Sea Mud Soap (Audrey Hepburn was a fan, too).

Etc. Happy Birthday to the BEAT[!].

Happy Birthday to the BEAT of young los angeles!

One year ago today, we launched. We're thrilled to still be here, going strong. Thank you so much for reading, we truly appreciate it.

Some of our favorite posts from the first year:

-from Chau: a great round-up of tasty fall beers, a meet-and-greet with Bret Easton Ellis, and my new go-to brunch spot

-from Lauren: a great place to get a cut, NPR's free songs and concerts on iTunes, and Leslie's guide to Indian food around L.A.

-from Leslie: our humble beginning, the classic Joan's on Third, a truly delicious-looking sandwich

Our suggestions for a celebration? Red velvet cake from Doughboys, and/or cocktails from Bar Marmont. Cheers!

Check It. Andrew Weiss Gallery.

Not many people can work it for the camera the way Marilyn did. The Andrew Weiss Gallery in Beverly Hills has the world's largest archive of Marilyn Monroe original photographs.

The gallery also features Picasso, Chagall, Matisse ... but I think the 1930s to present Hollywood fine photography is the real draw.

What's better than a gallery stroll on a rainy Saturday afternoon?

The Andrew Weiss Gallery is located at 179 South Beverly Drive in Beverly Hills and is open Monday through Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
