Drama! Heartbreak! Scandal! Last night’s 89th annual Academy Awards show had it all. Okay, fine, so it was pretty much just another boring awards show. There actually were some highlights during last night’s Oscars 2017 show though — there were also no Samsung-sponsored selfies, which itself is a highlight — and there was some serious drama as well. Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway announced on stage that “La La Land” had won the Oscar for best picture. It wasn’t entirely unexpected, of course, but there was one big problem… “La La Land” didn’t actually win the Oscar for best picture. Ruh roh…
