Gattaca

Some of Andrew Niccol's 1997 science-fiction film "Gattaca" was filmed at the Civic Center. Though most of the interior scenes of the film, starring Ethan Hawke, Uma Thurman, and Jude Law, were shot in Hollywood, many exterior scenes feature the building. One of the most experienced Civic Center docents, Avery Goldman, says the true "star" of "Gattaca" was the building itself. This is a screen shot from a trailer for the film, showing characters on the building's roof--the same spot as seen in the previous image.
