Oscars night Sunday had a double feature of history-making honors for actors Ariana DeBose and Troy Kotsur, while the heartfelt film “CODA” overpowered “The Power of the Dog” for a groundbreaking best picture win.
And in one of the wildest moments in Academy Awards history, a dust-up on stage saw Will Smith slug comedian Chris Rock over a joke about the actor’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.
“CODA,” a coming-of-age drama about a child of Deaf adults, became the first film featuring a predominantly Deaf cast to win an Oscar.
