The Oscars 2017: The Results
MoviesNews 27th February 2017 Jon Dingle 0

On a night successfully hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, the 89th Annual Academy Awards was filled with its fair share of surprises, laughs and a conclusion that will forever go down in Oscars history.
A Sunday night that saw many predicting La La Land to storm through the ceremony with a haul of awards, this year’s Oscars certainly delivered its fair share of shocks and nice surprises, with the leading candidate walking away with just 6 awards from its possible 14, leaving many rather surprised.
Host Jimmy Kimmel was on the top of his game, delivering gags that included Matt Damon, some hilarious tweets to President Trump and even a segment that included members of the public joining the evening celebrations direct from a Hollywood homes tour. It’s fair to say that Kimmel had everything under control until the final moments…
Upon the final big prize of the evening, Best Picture, veteran actors Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway took to the stage for the final hurrah. With Beatty apprehensively opening the envelope it would be Dunaway to confirm that La La Land were the victors – only for controversy to strike and the real winner Moonlight to be announced after a period of time that saw acceptance speeches already delivered by Damien Chazelle’s team. Dunaway had scarpered at this point, leaving Beatty to try and pick up the pieces. We had never seen anything like this in Oscars history…
