‘La La Land’ and the historic mistake at the Oscars
‘La La Land’ not only made history as one of the most nominated films, but also gifted the Academy one of the worst mistakes.
During the 89th Academy Awards ceremony, actors Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway were in charge of making the last and most awaited announcement: Best Picture of the year, but no one knew they would announce the wrong movie.
The actors announced ‘La La Land’ as the winner, when in fact it was ‘Moonlight’ who took home the award.
