LOS ANGELES — Lots of people were talking about this awkward mom and daughter moment.

WGN Entertainment Critic Dean Richards’ favorite moment of the 87th annual Academy Awards came between Dakota Johnson and her mother Melanie Griffith on the red carpet.

The “Fifty Shades of Grey” star used some bleep-able language to her mom over whether she had seen her in the erotic blockbuster yet. But really, would you want your mom to see that? No wonder Melanie was trying to move on in the interview.
