Actually in the 89 year history of the Oscars the first film to win Best Picture that took place in LA was Million Dollar Baby (2004) so for the first 77 years in the Oscars movies that take place in LA or Hollywood have never won Best Picture.

Though the recent trend that's changed
Crash (2005), The Artist (2011), and Argo (2012) all have taken place in LA or Hollywood.

La La Land would have been nexxt if it won BP.

For a second I thought I was going crazy thinking the academy awards were coming up so soon. But no just a necro bot visiting our forum.
