Warren Beatty, you are a jackass! I am willing to bet you were either drunk or high or combination thereof.
edit: Daye Dunaway is also an idiot since she is the one that actually said La La Land had won.
You do realize they were given the wrong card, right?
Well I don’t know what the hell happened, cause on camera they pulled the card right out of Beatty’s hands and it said “Moonlight” on it. I know he claimed the card he had said “La La Land”, but on camera they pulled the card right out of his hand and showed it to the camera and it said “Moonlight”. Either way, Beatty still looked off to me, either somewhat drunk or somewhat high.
Or old?
I didn’t actually watch the end so I didn’t see it, but you are the first person I’ve heard say the card had Moonlight on it. Did anyone else see this? Every story I’ve read said he was given the wrong envelope.

He explained it himself when it happened. There are apparently two envelopes for every category, and he was mistakenly given the second envelope for the previous category (Best Actress - Emma Stone). You see when he reads it he got confused. He was probably unsure of what to do and showed it to Dunaway to be like “what’s happening here?” and she saw La La Land and just said that.
I know all that, I’m wondering if anyone else can back up Warb’s assertion that the card he was given said Moonlight.
I don’t think it can be backed up because that’s not what happened.
