INDEPENDENT SPIRIT AWARD NOMINEES ANNOUNCED




Film Independent announced the nominees for the 29th Independent Spirit Awards on Tuesday.  This year's ceremony is currently scheduled for Mar. 4, 2023.  Telluride Films nabbed 20 nominations overall with Sarah Polley's Women Talking named the winner of the Robert Altman Award which goes to the director, casting directors and the ensemble cast.

Nominations Breakdown:

TAR (7): Best Feature, Direction (Field), Lead Performance (Blanchett), Supporting Performance (Hoss), Screenplay, Cinematography and Editing.

Aftersun (5): Best First Feature, Lead Performance (Mescal), Breakthrough Performance (Corio), Cinematography and Editing.

Women Talking (3): Best Feature, Direction and Screenplay plus the above mentioned Robert Altman Award.

Bones and All (3): Best Feature, Lead Performance (Russell), Supporting Performance (Rylance).

All the Beauty and the Bloodshed (1): Best Documentary

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On (1): Best Editing.  Marcel was a selection of TFF #48.

Everything, Everywhere All at Once lead the pack with a total of 8 nominations including Best Feature.  I sort of regard it as Telluride-adjacent because of the special screening of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Michelle Yeoh's presence at TFF #49.
