Question: Although it's not officially stated or mentioned, the movie definitely takes place in Hollywood, Los Angeles. During the time-lapse sequence of Elizabeth's Walk of Fame star, there's a wintery part with snow covering the walkway. Is it realistic to depict snow in Southwest California, especially in LA?
