Academy Awards

  • Best Actor: Emil Jannings for The Last Command and the 1927 movie The Way of All Flesh
  • Best Actress: Janet Gaynor for Street Angel and the 1927 movies Seventh Heaven and Sunrise

Note: Prior to 1933, awards were not based on calendar years, which is why there is no 'Best Picture' for a 1928 film.

Famous quotes containing the word academy:

    ...I have come to make distinctions between what I call the academy and literature, the moral equivalents of church and God. The academy may lie, but literature tries to tell the truth.
    Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)
