During the early 1970s, a movie called The Klansman, which starred Lee Marvin, Richard Burton, and O.J. Simpson, was shot in Oroville. Although the actual story of the movie was set in rural Alabama, Oroville was considered to be a more apt location for the movie's footage. It's said that Richard Burton drank so much during the shooting of the movie that most of his scenes show him either sitting or lying down.
The city of Oroville, which was previously known as Ophir City until 1854, represents the county seat of Butte County in California
