African-American coming-of-age tale
“Moonlight” won the Oscar for best picture beating favorite “La La Land” after
an embarrassing onstage mistake over the announcement.
According to reports, in a mishap
that caused uproar and confusion, presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway
initially announced that the romantic musical “La La Land” had won.
As the casts of both films stood
awkwardly on stage, Beatty explained he had been given the wrong envelope to
open.
It was the first time in living
memory that such a major mistake had been made at the Academy Awards.
