89th
Academy Awards Oscar 2017
The mood inside the Dolby Theatre was polite
but distracted. Due to the fact that many nominees didn’t achieve what they
thought they will in terms of winning the categories. It happened that Warren Beatty announce wrong best picture winner.
“La La Land” was mistakenly poised to take the Oscars best picture instead
of Moonlight.
The mistake of “La La Land” being nominated
the best picture prompted Oscars to launch a
formal investigation and promised appropriate action
after a mistake which caused the biggest upset its history, as auditing firm PwC name and shame the man responsible.
PwC, which has counted Oscars votes successfully for 83 years, disclosed Brian Cullinan, one of the two auditors privy to the Academy votes, had personally handed Warren Beatty the wrong best picture envelope and did not correct the mistake quickly enough.
The firm admitted it had failed the Academy, with protocols for correcting the on-stage error not enacted immediately. Everyone else began checking their phones consulting the babysitter or their schedule of post-show parties. Apologies were sent to those who were disappointments about the errors that seek to tarnish the best history of the Academy. It was indeed a hectic award day in the history of Oscar Academy.
