Best Picture of 2016: Moonlight

Chiron is a kid that grows up in rough neighborhood. He is quiet, doesn't really stand up for himself. The movie shows how he grows up and how he finds out who he is.

A24's Moonlight had very crazy night at the 89th Academy Awards. Mahershala Ali took home the Best Actor award that night, and this made history because he is the first Muslim to win an acting award at the Oscars. History was also made when La La Land was mistakenly announced as the Best Picture. The announcers were given the envelope for Best Actress by mistake thinking it was the Best Picture award. The Director for La La Land handled it really well when he came up and said how happy he was the Moonlight Actually won. The other nominations that night were: Paramount's Arrival and Fences; Summit Entertainment's Hacksaw Ridge and La La Land; CBS's Hell or High Water; 20th Century Fox's Hidden Figures; The Weinstein Company's Lion; and Amazon's Manchester by the Sea. 

I have to say I did not want to watch this film and I kind of wish I didn't. I didn't like it plain and simple. I was kind of board of it and it moved on the slow side.
