TCM showed a 1945 Joan Crawford movie last Sunday called "Mildred Pierce". There were several scences that took place in a California tiki bar. No tikis standing around, but lots of bamboo, rope, fishnets, glass fishing floats, etc. At one point, a lead characters says something like, "You know, I'm not sure why I come here. I hate this place."
In real life, Joan Crawford abused her daughter. In the film, the daughter abused Joan.
