There wasn't actually a "Best Picture" award in the first Oscars in 1928. Rather, there were two distinct awards, "Most Outstanding Production," (won by the movie "Wings") and "Most Artistic Quality of Production" (won by the movie "Sunrise").First Best PictureThe Academy Award (Oscar) for Best Motion Picture (Best Picture) was originally called the Academy Award for Best Production. The film 'Wings' was the first honored with this very prestigious award in 1929. The film is a 1927 silent movie about World War I fighter pilots Charles 'Buddy' Rogers and Richard Arlen who vie for the attentions of the same woman. According to Wikipedia, The first Academy Awards were presented on May 16, 1929 at a private dinner held at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. Tickets cost $10 and fewer than 250 people attended.wingsWingsWings is considered the first Best Picture winner. However, in the first Oscars in 1928 there were two separate awards, "Most Outstanding Production," (won by Wings) and "Most Artistic Quality of Production" (won by Sunrise).At the first Academy Awards ceremony for 1927/28 there was no Best Picture award. Instead, there were two separate awards, one called Most Outstanding Production, won by the epic Wings and one called Most Artistic Quality of Production won by the art film Sunrise. The awards were intended to honor different and equally important aspects of superior filmmaking, and in fact the judges and the studio bosses who sought to influence their decisions paid more attention to the latter - MGM head Louis B. Mayer who had disliked the realism of The Crowd, pressured the judges not to honor his own studio's film, and to select Sunriseinstead. The next year, the Academy instituted a single award called Best Production, and decided retroactively that the award won by Wings had been the equivalent of that award, with the result that Wings is often listed as the winner of a sole Best Picture award for the first year. The title of the award was eventually changed to Best Picture for the 1931 awards.The first Oscar ceremony was officially listed as the 1927/28 awards and Best Picture went to Wings, directed by William Wellman and starring Clara Bow ... the ceremony itself took 15 minutes.
