Guillermo del Toro’s otherworldly romance led with the most nominations and now, the most wins.
The Critics’ Choice Awards went in a similar vein to the Golden Globes earlier this week, solidifying the status of many highly-anticipated Oscar contenders. Guillermo del Toro‘s The Shape of Water didn’t exactly sweep all of its 14 nominations, but still won big with four awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. Del Toro’s chances of joining filmmaking friends Alfonso Cuarón and Alejandro G. Iñárritu as Oscar winners continue to increase.
Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing, Missouri dominated the acting categories, increasing Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell‘s Academy Award chances. I, Tonya‘s performances earned the movie a couple of wins too (yay for Allison Janney!). In an unexpected (although still deserved) turn of events, Margot Robbie, who was up against awards season favorite Saoirse Ronan, picked up the award for Best Actress in a Comedy. It was a big surprise for her too. Just ask Christopher Campbell, he was there.
Margot Robbie just won best actress in a comedy. She’s surprised. Comes down and gives Saoirse Ronan a big hug.

Get Out thankfully wasn’t completely snubbed, taking home a couple of awards for Best Sci-Fi or Horror Movie and Best Original Screenplay for Jordan Peele. Call Me By Your Name sadly fizzled out as Gary Oldman pulled ahead of Timothée Chalamet yet again. However, James Ivory‘s enchanting script at least picked up Best Adapted Screenplay. Brooklynn Prince‘s win for The Florida Project was definitely a huge highlight of the evening, and welcome recognition for the otherwise underdog. (Willem Dafoe deserves better.)
I just saw Jacob Tremblay come over and give Brooklyn Prince a congratulatory hug. Adorable. #criticschoiceawards

As the best of both worlds, Baby Driver and Dunkirk tied for the Best Editing prize. And it’s fantastic to see Roger Deakins‘ stellar work in Blade Runner 2049 appreciated with his Best Cinematography win. Wonder Woman managed to beat out some serious competition to win Best Action Movie.
Things felt far less disrupted in TV land, and I mean that in the best way possible. Big Little Lies, The Handmaid’s Tale and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel took home awards in various categories. The Big Bang Theory did not, in fact, win Best Comedy Series, which is always a huge plus. Finally, a wonderful surprise win in the Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series category went to David Harbour for a great turn in Stranger Things.
