Now that we’ve recovered from yesterday’s behemoth news of the Oscar nominations (though there are still some reeling how Pacific Rim was snubbed for a Best Visual Effects nod, and rightfully so), it’s time for Awards Feeder to continue with coverage of the Critic’s Choice Awards.
As expected, 12 Years A Slave won three awards at the gala, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actress (Lupita Nyong’o) and Best Adapted Screenplay. However, it was Gravity that ended up sweeping most of the technicals as well as a Best Director win for Alfonso Cuaron, earning seven in total to become the night’s biggest winner. American Hustle was also a big winner, with four nods including Best Ensemble.
Matthew McConaughey edged closer to become the Best Actor frontrunner with his win for Dallas Buyers Club, while co-star Jared Leto was awarded Best Supporting Actor. Meanwhile, Cate Blanchett continues her unstoppable awards sweep by taking Best Actress for Blue Jasmine.
Other winners included Spike Jonze for the Original Screenplay for Her; Frozen carted off with Best Animated Film and Best Original Song for power ballad “Let It Go”; Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of The Great Gatsby surprised with two wins for Art Direction and Costume Design; and acclaimed French romance Blue Is The Warmest Colour scored Best Foreign Language Film as well as Best Young Actor/Actress for star Adele Exarchopoulos.
