On May 16, 1929, 270 people assembled in the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel's Blossom Room.
They were there to honor the highest achievements in filmmaking over the last year. It was not broadcast on radio, was not recorded, and the entire event only took 15 minutes.
Those present on that day didn’t know it, but they were witness to the start of the most prestigious awards in the motion picture industry.
