That 16 year old Moana girl is so cute—the breath at the end of “oh wow I did it.”
Most moving speech, Moonlight Best Adapted Screenplay winner. “We’ve got your back. For all those black and brown boys, who are not gender conforming, we’re trying to show you, you. This is for you!” Tarell Alvin McCraney screenplay writer for Moonlight.

“…and all you people out there who think there’s no mirror for you, that your life is not reflected, the Academy has your back. The ACLU has your back. We have your back. And for the next four years, we will not leave you alone. We will not forget you.” Barry Jenkins, Moonlight
