Hollywood producers named the musical La La Land the best film of 2016 Saturday at a ceremony marked by criticism of President Donald Trump’s immigration policies. The big win by La La Land at the 28th annual awards set up the film, which stars Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone, as an odds-on Oscar favorite, after it scored a record-tying 14 Oscar nominations earlier this month. The Producers Guild of America (PGA), which is among the leading industry organizations representing makers of movies and TV shows, also named its best animated film, Zootopia, favorite documentary, O.J.: Made in America and honored Netflix’s Stranger Things as the top television drama. Criticism of Trump policy Musician John Legend, a star of La La Land, criticized the new president’s executive order placing curbs on people arriving in the United States from certain Muslim-majority countries, which spawned protests and confusion at several U.S. airports Saturday. “We encourage everybody out there to speak out against it,” Legend said. Later, introducing the colorful musical film, Legend said “Our vision of America is directly antithetical to that of President Trump. I want to specifically tonight reject his vision and affirm that America has to be better than that.” Accepting the award, La La Land producer Marc Platt continued in a similar vein, saying “It is the power of cinema fueled by free artistic expression that cannot be denied, that has no borders, and will never be banned from our hearts, our minds and our souls.” In past years, PGA best film winners have often gone on to win the best picture Oscar, Hollywood’s big prize. Others honored Among other honors for television productions, two FX shows prevailed, as another look at the famous O.J. Simpson murder case, The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, won the producers’ award for long-form television and the comedy series award was won by Atlanta. Netflix’s Making a Murderer won for non-fiction television, while NBC’s The Voice took home the prize for reality competition series and PBS’ Sesame Street scored for children’s program. Outstanding sports program went to World of Sports, while Last Week Tonight with John Oliver won the live entertainment and talk television award. The Academy Awards will be bestowed February 26 to producers, directors, actors and actresses by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
