There were a few snubs and one earth-shattering surprise among the night’s surprises during Sunday’s Oscars telecast. Here is our list:
Surprise
DC Films got an unexpected Oscar as “Suicide Squad” won Best Makeup & Hairstyling. Alessandro Bertolazzi, Giorgio Gregorini and Christopher Nelson accepted the award.
Surprise
Another unpredicted Oscar win was Colleen Atwood’s victory for Best Costume Design for “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.”
Snub
In the snub heard around the world: “La La Land” got passed up as Kenneth Lonergan won the Best Original Screenplay Oscar for “Manchester by the Sea.”
Snub
In something of a surprise, the Oscar for Best Film Editing went to “Hacksaw Ridge” instead of “La La Land.” Editor John Gilbert accepted the Oscar.
Snub
Casey Affleck won Best Actor tonight in another Oscar surprise as Denzel Washington was seen as a strong contender.
(Epic) Snub and Surprise
In the flub heard around the world: “La La Land” beat “Moonlight” for the Best Picture Oscar, only for it to turn out that presenters Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty had read the wrong name. “La La Land” was the heavy favorite going into the ceremony, but the film’s producers graciously handed the statuette over when the mistake was revealed. It was an Oscar snafu — and upset — of historic proportions.
