The star of "Fatal Attraction" and many other films told the crowd being honored with a career achievement honor by the AARP Movies for Grownups Awards.at Monday's glitzy ceremony that his assistant mistakenly told him he was receiving an award for his work in adult films. The newspaper drama "Spotlight" was selected as best picture at the 15th annual ceremony presented by the advocacy group AARP to stars over the age of 50 and the films that speak to that demographic. In her speech, Ladd took issue with the competitive race for supporting actress at this year's Academy Awards, which she is not among. At the beginning of night, show host Kathy Griffin joked that #OscarsSoYoung should be trending on Twitter and that she felt comfortable mocking youngsters at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel ceremony. Other winners Monday included "The Intern" as best comedy, "Love & Mercy" as best time capsule, "The Last Man on the Moon" as best documentary, "Learning to Drive" as best buddy picture, "5 Flights Up" as best grownup love story, "Rams" as best foreign film, "Inside Out" for best movie for grownups who refuse to grow up and "Creed" as best intergenerational film.
