>But this is the real Beverly Hills High, boasting

>Nicolas Cage ("Con Air") went here, even though his

>On the negative side, the infamous Menendez brothers,
>Lyle and Erik, were students at Beverly Hills High, as

>Lewinsky (although she left in 1990 at age 16 to

>Even though it isn't the shooting site for "Beverly

>share of movie cameras on campus...
>
> "It's A Wonderful Life" has become a Christmas
>classic, and part of that 1946 fantasy was shot here.
>Remember the scene where young Jimmy Stewart and Donna
>Reed are dancing at a high school prom, when a hidden
>swimming pool beneath them slides open, and the
>dancers fall into the water? Well, Frank Capra filmed
>that famous pool scene here at Beverly Hills High.
>(What other high school would have a covered swimming
>pool in 1946?)
>
>
>(A bit of Hollywood trivia: the student who opened the
>pool was played by Carl Switzer, the actor who was
>famous as 'Alfalfa' in the "Our Gang" comedies.)

>
>The high school was also featured in the 1993 movie
>version of "The Beverly Hillbillies." It was where
>'Ellie May Clampett' went to school (and where she
>whipped the boy's wrestling team in the gym).
>
>And the school was also seen in the 1999 film
>"Anywhere But Here" - it was where Susan Sarandon's
>daughter 'Heather' (Natalie Portman) went to school.
>
>
>Getting there: Beverly Hills High school is located
>just two blocks east of the Century City Shopping
>Center, on Moreno Drive, (between Santa Monica Blvd. &
>Olympic Blvd). / From Rodeo Drive, go north to Santa
>Monica Boulevard, and turn left (west). Follow Santa
>Monica Boulevard southwest (about three quarters of a
>mile) to Moreno Drive. Turn left (southeast) on Moreno
>Drive, and go three blocks to the school, which will
>be on your right (west) side. The gym (with the
>sliding pool) is located near the athletic track, on
>the southeast side of the campus.

> If you would prefer to see the real high school where
>the TV series "Beverly Hills 90210" was actually
>filmed, head out to the city of Torrance, and 2200 W.
>Carson Street. If you're a fan of the show, you'll
>recognize Torrance High School's familiar Moorish
>arches, which Brenda & Dylan (Shannon Doherty & Luke
>Perry) strolled past each week on the popular TV
>series. / To reach Torrance High, take the San Diego
>(405) Freeway to the Crenshaw Boulevard offramp, and
>head south on Crenshaw (about two and a half miles) to
>Carson Street. Turn left (east) on Carson Street, and
>go three blocks east (to just past Plaza Del Amo). The
>school will be on your right (south) side.
