Gotham Awards: ‘The Lost Daughter’ Wins Top Prize — See the Full List of Winners
The Gotham Awards went down in Lower Manhattan on Monday night, and back in their usual prime slot at the start of the awards season. (Last year’s ceremony actually took place this year in January, instead of the usual late November/early December spot.) Below, check out the full list of winners.
“The Lost Daughter” cleared the competition during the ceremony, winning prizes for Best Feature, Breakthrough Director, and Outstanding Lead Performance, which Olivia Colman shared with “The Killing of Kenneth Chamberlain” star Frankie Faison. Netflix’s Elena Ferrante adaptation directed and written by Maggie Gyllenhaal looks poised to take on more awards ceremonies this season, ahead of opening in theaters on December 17 and then streaming on the platform December 31.
Kristen Stewart received this year’s Performer Tribute thanks to her performance in “Spencer.” Other honorees include Eamonn Bowles (who received the Industry Tribute), the cast of “The Harder They Fall” (receiving the Ensemble Tribute), and Campion (receiving the Director’s Tribute). Peter Dinklage also accepted a Tribute prize from an impassioned Ethan Hawke, who in an emotional speech called the actor a “national treasure.” “I really love you tribe of weirdos,” Dinklage told the room.
The Gotham Awards don’t always quite line up with Academy Awards, but they play a role in elevating contenders early on in the season. Last year’s winner for Best Feature was “Nomadland,” which ended up sweeping the circuit with Best Picture wins at the Golden Globes and the Oscars. Riz Ahmed won the Best Actor prize on his way to an Oscar nomination in the same category for “Sound of Metal.” The 2020 Best Actress prize went to Nichole Behari for “Miss Juneteenth,” a critical favorite, who didn’t end up with an Oscar nomination.
