It was a night that awarded work you’ve by now heard way too much about (La La Land nabbed seven trophies, including Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy), and perhaps knew nothing of (The Night Manager—????—won three acting awards!!!!).
Other multiple winners included The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story (predictable), The Crown (uh, OK?) Atlanta (hurrah!), and, in an extremely unlikely turn, Paul Verhoeven’s rape dramedy Elle (including a much deserved Actress – Motion Picture – Drama win for master Isabelle Huppert).
And in a stunning turn of events, after being shut out of every category for which it was nominated, Jez fave Moonlight nabbed the honor for Motion Picture – Drama, proving that no matter how bleak things might seem, there is always hope.
Below is the list of winners, in the order they were named, so you can relive the excitement of the night. This is a list for dreamers.
