Of the 24 categories on the ballot tonight, I picked the winner in 16 of them. So-so. I did better last year — 18-6. Tonight I missed both winners in the two “Sound” categories, and blew Best Costume Design and Best Makeup as well. My biggest miss was “La La Land” not getting Best Picture. Though I picked “La La Land” to win because that’s the movie I thought Academy members would choose, my favorite movie among the best picture nominees this year was “Lion.” Wondering how many of you picked “Moonlight” to win Best Picture?
