Located near the Hollywood studios, St. Brendan's gothic structure was a popular setting for movies. It was used as a location for "Our Gang" comedies and for the climactic scene in 1953's War of the Worlds in which desperate humans gathered to pray for a miracle inside St. Brendan's while Martian ships blasted away outside."In an apparent nod to the 1950s end of the world classic, the lead characters in Armageddon played by Liv Tyler and Ben Affleck were married at the end of the movie at St. Brendan's.The church was also used as a location in Fight Club, with the narrator attending a support meeting for cancer victims at the church.
