Here at Venere.com we love Oscars and came up with a top 10 list of the movies that won “Best Picture” award between 1980 and 2011. To add a little bit more “fun” we thought it would have been useful to picture where the filming locations throughout the world, as well as give an idea of budget and box office revenues. Last, but not least, we added a fun fact or Trivia for each. Enjoy!
