“Past Lives” emerged as the big winner of the evening, securing the coveted title of Best Feature.Charles Melton clinched the award for Best Supporting Performance for his role in Todd Haynes’ “May December,” while Lily Gladstone received accolades for her lead performance in “The Unknown Country.”
Expressing her gratitude, writer-director Celine Song, accepting the Best Feature award for “Past Lives,” remarked, “Thank you, Gotham, for this award. It’s such an honour. It really means the world to receive it with my debut set in New York City, a city I live in and love deeply.” The film’s stars, Greta Lee and John Magaro, joined her on stage for this momentous occasion.
Director Andrew Haigh’s metaphysical gay romance “All of Us Strangers” led the nominations with four nods. Celine Song’s “Past Lives” and A.V. Rockwell’s “A Thousand and One” followed closely with three nominations each. The Best Feature category also included contenders like “Showing Up,” “Passages,” and “Reality.”
This year marked a departure from the historical $35 million budget cap for nominees, allowing more diverse entries, including larger productions like “Barbie.” Furthermore, the Gotham Awards embraced a gender-neutral approach to acting categories.
