As a follow-up to my previous post on “Moonlight,” congratulations to all involved in the creation of this film for the ages. Although Barry Jenkins lost the Best Director statue, he was awarded Best Adapted Screenplay along with Tarell Alvin McCraney, and the magnificent Mahershala Ali walked away with the Best Supporting Actor honors.
I hope its three Oscar wins will encourage more people to check it out.
