Gotham Awards winners announced
Dec 3, 2024
A24’s A Different Man won best feature at the 2024 Gotham Awards at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.
Meanwhile, Sing Sing swept the acting categories, with Colman Domingo winning for best lead performance and Clarence Maclin for best supporting performance.
Each category for nominations is decided by a different jury of critics, journalists and other industry professionals, and screening links must be provided to all its jury members. An entirely different group determines the winners. That’s in contrast with the Oscars or the BAFTAs, which are determined by actors, filmmakers and other artists who are in the entertainment industry.
