I think people just got tired of NYC tbh. Northeast crime movies getting placed in Boston is a somewhat recent trend I thought?

Oh maybe, but I still thought you could set in a movie in NYC, and people would not have a problem with it because of 9/11/ For example, Gone Baby Gone is about a kidnapped child, people are trying to find, and it has nothing to do with 9/11, so I felt that the audience would still be okay with that story set in NYC, if they chose to set it there.
For me The Friends of Eddie Coyle would be my favorite. I had it pretty high up on my 70s list and was disappointed it didn't make the countdown Next might be Gone Baby Gone.

That's an odd thing to say. There's still plenty of movies made in NYC, but the novel Gone Baby Gone is set in Boston, so why would they change the location?
