It was in the Dragnet movie with Tom Hanks and Dan Akroyd. The location was the north west corner of Hollywood and Vine. The Brown Derby relocated there for a short time after the location on Vine Street closed. The owner was Walter Scharfe. I have exterior photos of the building.

Another person asked him to post these photos, but he did not.

This is the Brown Derby from 'Dragnet'.

Here's a couple of shots of the street as Pep Streebek (Tom Hanks) leaves with Granny Mundy.

The interior has plenty of caricatures on the walls.
