The Bel Air Circuit, more recently known as the Bel Air Digital Circuit, is an exclusive movie distribution service provided by the main Hollywood studios, offered to a group of movie executives, actors, as well as other wealthy individuals, in and around the greater Los Angeles area in the USA.
Named after the affluent area of Bel Air in the city of Los Angeles, where a large number of movie executives live, this Hollywood institution has a long history. It was originally set-up by the movie moguls, including Louis B. Mayer, to allow them to view and critique new releases in the comfort and privacy of their own homes, but was later expanded into an invite-only exclusive service for wealthy patrons who could not go to regular cinemas for whatever reason, or who could simply afford their own home theatres, so chose to view movies this way.
