KU film professor Kevin Wilmott just won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for Spike Lee's *Black KKKlamsman"
Congrats.

Trivia: KU alum Charles "Buddy" Rogers co-starred with Clara Bow in the film that won the first Oscar in 1927, "Wings."

@nwhawkfan I don't know if this was a joke, but I saw where someone asked Kevin what he was wearing and he answered, Weavers, Mass St. Lawrence KS. Pretty cool!
