"Kid 'N' Hollywood" is an early Shirley Temple short comedy with a cast composed entirely of young children, enacting adult roles (it was apparently part of a series of such short films). It has some funny moments, but has some uncomfortable parts as well, while also being a bit too cute at other times. Shirley is a young aspiring actress who is rejected by the casting office, but who then gets her chance when star "Snobbo" doesn't feel like performing. There are a couple of funny parodies of Hollywood life, but at other times it is quite uncomfortable to see children acting out some of the less admirable aspects of star behavior.
All in all, an odd movie, and honestly not a very good one, probably mostly of historical interest.
