Get Shorty was a satire on the film industry, as well. Was that just a coincidence?

I know LA Confidential wasn't really about the industry. Just had a little as the backdrop since they were in L.A. Haven't seen Devil in a Blue Dress, but from the plot summary it looks to be unrelated to the film industry entirely.

These were not all supposed to be about the film industry. The movies the prof picked were those that involved life in the city of L.A. The two you mentioned were satires on the film industry, but the other two were about street life in the 40s and 50s. All four were great movies I'm glad I got to see again.
