Moonlight Wins Best Picture After La La Land Called by Mistake

Disregarding the biggest on-stage gaffe in one of the biggest moments, La La Land was the big winner at the 2017 Academy Awards winning six Academy Awards and host Jimmy Kimmel providing levity between segments.

Moonlight won Best Picture butt Warren Beatty was mistakenly handed the wrong envelope and announced La La Land. Moonlight director Barry Jenkis became the first African-American to win Best Pcture and he co-won Best Adapted Screenplay.

Viola Davis won for Best Supporting Actress after she’s the first African-American actress to earn three separate nominations – Lead Actress in The Help, Suporting Actress in Doubt and to have won an Oscar, an Emmy and a Tony award.

Ema Stone won for Best Actress, and it was her envelope that Beatty was mistakenly handed, and was her second Oscar nomination. Damien Chazelle became the youngest to ever win the Best Directing at 32 -years-old.

Asghar Farhadi won Best Foreign Film for The Salesman but did not attend the awards as a boycott in protest of President Trump’s travel ban.In a prepared letter he said in part, “I’m sorry I’m not with you tonight. My absences is out of respect for the people of my country and those of other six nations whom have been disrespected by the inhumane law that bans entry of immigrants to the U.S.”
