Here now: A newspaper clip I cut out a few decades back and still have. Worth a read! From the time
when Neil Simon ruled on Broadway and would never have considered heading west to LA la land.
Simon on East and West It won't be long before Neil Simon of Los Angeles moves back to New York full-time on a part-time basis, which is to say the writer misses this city more than he thought he would when he headed West in 1975, and will spend four months a year here instead of visiting occasionally for a week at a stretch. Having crossed the country and seen both sides now, Mr. Simon is keenly aware of the differences, and has articulated them more than once, but rarely as bitingly as he does in the February issue of Playboy: "I think that in southern California, people are very concerned about making their life comfortable, while back East they're more concerned with making their life interesting. If I had to make one comparison, I'd say that when it's 5 below in New York, it's 78 in Los Angeles, and when it's 110 in New York, it's 78 in Los Angeles. But there are two million interesting people in New York - and only 78 in Los Angeles." |
