Movies filmed in Pacific Palisades

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Pacific Palisades as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

  • Species 1995
  • It's Complicated 2009
    “Afterwards, the team returned to Los Angeles for completion of the scenes at Jane's house and for the filming at the Bel-Air Bay Club in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood.” Wikipedia

    “During production, on April 8, 1952, when Peck was carrying Gardner for a scene in the film, Peck wrenched his knee and production had to be postponed for 10 days while he recovered in his Pacific Palisades home, and Hildegard Knef came down with influenza in the studios.” Wikipedia
  • Savages 2012
    “By August 2011, the film was shooting in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles.” Wikipedia
