Hurt Locker facts
While investigating facts about Hurt Locker, I found out little known, but curios details like:
Kathryn Bigelow is the first and only female to win the Academy Award for Best Director, winning for the 2009 film "The Hurt Locker"
The Hurt Locker is the lowest grossing film ever to win the Academy Award for Best Picture (adjusted for inflation of course)
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 6 of the best facts about Hurt Locker I managed to collect.
