This Day in History: , First Academy Awards Ceremony.
May 16, 1929.
The first awards ceremony
was thought up by MGM mogul, Louis B. Mayer.
Styled more as a dinner party
than how we know the Oscars today,
the event included about 250 people.
Before this first ceremony
was conducted, the winners
had already been announced.
The purpose of the ceremony was
to honor the awardees and to present
them with their Oscar statuettes.
'Wings' and 'Sunrise' were the
first films to be awarded as
the best films of the year.
Emil Jannings won the Best Actor
award and Janet Gaynor won
in the Best Actress category

Anne Hathaway is praising Christopher Nolan for coming to her side during the days of the toxic "Hathahate" movement. The actress spoke about the moment in time in a new profile with Vanity Fair and said that co-hosting the 2013 Oscars and taking home the honor for best supporting actress for 'Les Misérables' marked a tipping point of over exposure where her online and media reputation turned "toxic" — to the point where she says it cost her movie roles.
