Aftersun, TÁR, Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Inspection Top Gotham Awards Nominations List
Paul Mescal and Frankie Corio star in Charlotte Wells's Aftersun Nominations for the 2022 Gotham Awards were announced this morning, with Todd Fields’s TÁR topping the list with five nominations, including Best Picture, Outstanding Lead Performance (Cate Blanchett) and two Outstanding Performer noms (Noémie Merlant and Nina Hoss). But perhaps the biggest surprise is in the composition of the Best Feature category, which omitted a number of presumed awards-season heavyweights in favor of a trio of excellent, smaller-budgeted, pure independent films acquired at festivals. Along with TÁR and the Daniels’ Everything Everywhere All at Once, Best Feature nominees are Charlotte Wells’s delicately allusive memory piece, Aftersun, an A24 acquisition out of Cannes; Ricky D’Ambrose’s austere and evocative artistic coming-of-age tale, The Cathedral (a Venice Biennale College Cinema production acquired by MUBI following its Venice and Sundance premieres); and Juan Pablo Gonzalez’s Dos Estaciones, a Mexico-set near-hybrid drama set in a real-life tequila plant that was picked up out of Sundance by Cinema Guild.
In addition to TÁR, other multiple-nominees announced by The Gotham Film & Media Institute Executive Director Jeffery Sharp and Pose star Angelica Ross this morning include Aftersun (four), Everything Everywhere All at Once (three) as well as Elegance Bratton’s The Inspection, for which Bratton received a Bingham Ray Breakthrough Director nomination and Gabrielle Union and Raúl Castillo nabbed Outstanding Supporting Actor noms. (Left out, mystifyingly, was Jeremy Pope in the Outstanding Performer category). We’re All Going to the World’s Fair got nods for both Jane Schoenbrun (Breakthrough Director) and Anna Cobb (Breakthrough Performer).
The television nominations are less surprising, with HBO MAX series including Nathan Fielder’s sui generis The Rehearsal, scoring nine nominations; Apple TV+, AMC and Showtime three;Netflix, ABC and Prime Video two.
Commented Sharp at the announcement, “We are thrilled to announce this year’s Gotham Award nominees and look forward to celebrating together live and in person in a few weeks. Over 500 films and TV shows were submitted for consideration this year. These filmmakers demonstrated tremendous courage and invention in the production of their work during these months, and we’d like to congratulate them all.”
The Gotham Awards will take place Monday, November 28, at Cipriani Wall Street, New York. (Note: The Gotham is Filmmaker‘s publisher.)
