Netflix Launches New "Moments" Feature To Bookmark, Save & Share Scenes
Sean Baker's Cannes Palme d'Or-winning Anora from Neon has nabbed four Gotham Award nominations today including Best Feature, Best Director, Outstanding Lead Performance for Mikey Madison and Outstanding Supporting Performance for Yura Borisov.
Luca Guadagnino's Challengers from Amazon MGM was nominated for Best Feature. The studio's Nickel Boys by RaMell Ross had noms for Best Feature and Best Director.
The indie-centric awards last year removed a longstanding budget cap on eligibility, an opening for bigger budget studio and streamer fare to submit for consideration.
A24 films were everywhere with multiple nominations for Babygirl, I Saw The TV Glow, Sing Sing and A Different Man.
The October noms and early December ceremony are industry bellwethers, coming at the start of awards season in the crush of fall festival buzz.
"We are proud to announce the nominees for The Gothams, selected by nominating committees who bring their independent perspective to the selection process. This year's nominations celebrate voices from across the globe, embodying the growing embrace of international cinema by audiences everywhere," said Jeffrey Sharp, president of the The Gotham Film & Media Institute, the awards' parent organization.
A number of international films like Maria and Emilia Perez (Netflix) and The Substance (Mubi) weren't eligible for Best Film nominations although open to other categories.
The 2024 Gothams (the 34th edition of the annual event) will be held live and in person at 7 pm on Monday, December 2 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.
