CineNation Now Showing (2/23–3/4)
Well, this year’s Oscars might go down as one of the craziest of all time. La La Land was the big favorite heading into the evening, and even though the film had the most awards of the night, Moonlight surprised the world when it took home the Oscar for Best Picture. Yes, there was a major screwup with EnevelopeGate, but it was easily one of the most exciting moments of any Oscars. Moonlight, the little movie that could, came out on top in one of the biggest upsets in Academy Awards history.
Now, it’s time to announce the winner of the Second Annual CineNation Oscar Ballot Competition. And the winner of the competition is…
Sebastián Henríquez!!!
Sebastián, you will receive a free Blu-Ray copy of the Best Picture nominee of choice. Please e-mail us at cinenationpodcast@gmail.com to claim your prize. Thank you to everyone for participating in this year’s competition!
