The Oscars just had their seventh tie in the history of the Academy Awards, for Best Live Action Short Film. The winners are the french-language drama, Two People Exchanging Saliva, and the musical-comedy, The Singers.
Kumail Nanjiani presented the award, looking genuinely shocked when he opened the envelope.
Both winners walked up on stage, with Natalie Musteata, one of the directors and writers of Two People Exchanging Saliva, thanking the Academy for, “supporting a film that is weird and queer and made by a majority of women.”
Between the speeches, Nanjiani humorously said, “Ironically, the award for short film will take twice as long.”
