The critics have had their say.
The 24th annual Critics’ Choice Awards took place in Santa Monica on Sunday night, hosted by Taye Diggs.
It proved to be a good night for Alfonso Cuarón and Roma which is making headway ahead of the Oscars.
The Mexican film won 4 awards including Best Foreign Language Film, Best Cinematography, Best Director, and Best Picture.
Best Actress in a Motion Picture proved interesting as Lady Gaga of A Star Is Born tied with The Wife’s Glenn Close for the honour.
The male equivalent was more straight-forward, being awarded to Christian Bale for playing Dick Chaney in Vice.
The year’s most nominated film, The Favourite, only won two prizes — Best Ensemble and Best Actress in a Comedy for Olivia Colman.
The Americans, which concluded its final season in May, picked up awards for Best Television Drama, lead actor Matthew Rhys and supporting actor Noah Emmerich.
The comedy category was swept by The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel with its star Rachel Brosnahan and Alex Borstein claiming lead and supporting actress, respectively, while the series took home Best Comedy.
The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story won the limited series / TV movie award, with star Darren Criss picking up the lead actor honour.
