The first notable awards ceremony in a packed season, the Gotham Awards were founded to shine a light on smaller productions that may or may not struggle to find success throughout the course of the year when faced with larger contenders. With all of the nominees having production budgets of $35 million or less, films like Dune, Don’t Look Up, and more are absent in favor of less conventional awards titles like The Green Knight, Passing, and Pig. Regardless of the size of budget, the films and shows nominated at this year’s Gotham Awards gathered notable amounts of love and praise with no trouble.
Today, we’ll be keeping you up to speed on the winners of each category as soon as they are announced. Artists receiving high tributes at the Gothams include Kristen Stewart for her outstanding performance in Spencer and Jane Campion for her directorial feats in The Power of The Dog – two names that are expected to go far this awards season, and for good reason. Continue checking back to see which of your favorite performers and filmmakers walk away with the highest awards at the 2021 Gotham Awards! You can also find the final winners for the 2021 Oscars, Golden Globes, Critics Choice Awards, SAG Awards, BAFTAs, MTV Awards, and HCA TV Awards right here on DiscussingFilm.
