The 2019

Gotham Awards

nominations

are dominated by “Marriage Story,” “The Farewell,” “

Uncut Gems

,” and “The Last Black Man in San Francisco,” all four of which earned three nominations. “Marriage Story,” “Uncut Gems,” and “The Farewell” earned Best Feature nominations and are being viewed as top Oscar contenders for Netflix and A24, respectively. Films that landed two nominations include “Clemency,” “Diane,” and “High Flying Bird.” Nominated television series include “When They See Us,” “Unbelievable,” “Pen15,” and “Russian Doll.” Overall, 33 films and television series landed Gotham Awards in 2019.

Gotham Award winners are decided by a jury of filmmakers, writers, producers, and other crew-members directly involved in making films. The Audience Award is selected by IFP members through online voting. This year’s ceremony will also feature four tribute awards given to actors Sam Rockwell and Laura Dern, director Ava DuVernay, and producer Glen Basner.

The Gotham Awards don’t always overlap with the larger Oscar race, but as the first ceremony of the season it plays a role in boosting the awards buzz around certain indie dark horses. Last year’s acting winners Ethan Hawke (“First Reformed”) and Toni Collette (“Hereditary”) had their champions all Oscar season but failed to get nominations. Best Feature winner “The Rider” got a significant boost in awards buzz after taking the top Gotham prize.
