Andrew Haigh’s drama All of Us Strangers has landed nine London Critics’ Circle Awards nominations, ahead of Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, which has scored seven.
Celine Song’s Past Lives, Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things and Jonathan Glazer’s The Zone of Interest garnered six noms apiece, while Greta Gerwig’s Barbie notched five. Scroll down for full list of nominations.
All of the films are in the running for the critics’ Film of the Year accolade, alongside the French courtroom drama Anatomy of a Fall, Alexander Payne’s The Holdovers, Todd Haynes’ May December and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon.
In the acting categories, Andrew Scott, Paul Giamatti and Cillian Murphy and lead actresses Lily Gladstone, Sandra Hüller, Greta Lee and Emma Stone all feature.
The winners will be announced at a ceremony in London on February 4 with actor-writer-comic Anna Leong Brophy reprising her role as host. Jeffrey Wright will be presented with the London Critics’ top honor, The Dilys Powell Award for Excellence in Film. Wright is also nominated this year as lead actor in American Fiction.
The Critics’ Circle is the UK’s longest-standing critics association, and its Film Awards are voted on by a 210-strong section of its membership.
“Because our members watch nearly all of the films released in Britain every year, our nominations tend to look unlike all the other awards shows,” said Rich Cline, Chair of the Critics’ Circle Film Section. “The Critics’ Circle Film Awards is an integral part of the annual cinema awards-season conversation and has consistently highlighted film achievements that may be overlooked by other groups.”
