Moonlight outshines La La Land at Writers Guild of America awards
Moonlight has beaten Oscars favourite La La Land to win the top honour at a politically-charged Writers Guild of America (WGA) Awards.
The film's writer and director Barry Jenkins won best original screenplay for the drama about a young gay black man coming of age in Miami.
He beat Damien Chazelle's musical La La Land - which is widely tipped for Oscar success later this month - as well Manchester By The Sea, Loving and Hell Or High Water.
