I Gotham Awards 2021 sono stati trasmessi in un evento ibrido live e virtuale non convenzionale da New York.
Con Jeffrey Sharp, il direttore esecutivo dell’organizzazione di presentazione dei Gotham Awards, il Gotham Film and Media Institute, precedentemente noto come IFP, di persona insieme a una manciata di presentatori in una Cipriani Wall Street in gran parte vuota, e i vincitori che si uniscono allo spettacolo tramite video dal vivo, la 30esima edizione dei Gotham Awards ha premiato un gruppo eterogeneo di progetti e figure nel cinema indipendente.
Nomadland di Chloé Zhao ha vinto due premi: il miglior lungometraggio e il premio del pubblico. Zhao, in particolare, ha ringraziato i festival cinematografici dell’anno passato.
“Ci hanno davvero mostrato e ci hanno ricordato che non siamo soli”, ha detto in video. “Che abbiamo una comunità, una comunità forte, che è unita dal nostro amore per il cinema. Quindi grazie per averci aiutato l’anno scorso”.
Mentre la First Cow di Kelly Reichardt è stata nominata per quattro premi principali, è andata a casa a mani vuote.
Riz Ahmed di Sound of Metal ha vinto come miglior attore e Nicole Beharie di Miss Juneteenth come miglior attrice.
Tra gli altri vincitori figurano Kingsley Ben-Adir di One Night in Miami , Andrew Patterson (Bingham Ray Breakthrough Director Award) di The Vast of Night e due legami nelle categorie di miglior sceneggiatura e miglior documentario. Per quanto riguarda la TV, Watchmen e I May Destroy You della HBO hanno vinto come serie rivoluzionarie – formato lungo (oltre 40 minuti) e serie rivoluzionarie – formato breve (meno di 40 minuti).
