‘Judy’, ‘Rocketman’ And ‘The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’ Triumph at 2020 Critics Choice Awards
‘Once Upon A Time In Hollywood’, ‘Avengers: Endgame’ and ‘Chernobyl’ were also victorious.
Judy, Rocketman and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel were among the winners at the 2020 Critics Choice Awards at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, on 12 January.
Voted Best Actress, Judy star Renee Zellweger shared her triumph with the women who inspire her, including the muse behind her superlative performance in the film and the talents who shared her category, too.
After winning best actress for portraying Judy Garland in the Rupert Goold-directed biopic of the late actress and singer at the 2020 Critics Choice, Zellweger began by shouting out many of the actresses nominated at this year’s ceremony, who included Jennifer Lopez, Laura Dern, Cynthia Erivo, Awkwafina, Lupita Nyong’o, Nicole Kidman and more.
“I admire you and your work, and the women that you are in the world representing this community,” she said. “You made me proud to be part of it.”
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’s Alex Borstein was also successful at the 2020 Critics Choice, where she scooped the Best Supporting Actress In A Comedy Series award.
Meanwhile, the 2020 Critics Choice best song race saw not one, but two winners thanks to a tie between ‘(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again,’ Elton John and Bernie Taupin’s collaboration for Rocketman, and Jessie Buckley’s ballad ‘Glasgow (No Place Like Home)’ from Wild Rose.
John and Taupin already won Golden Globes for best original song for (‘I’m Gonna) Love Me Again’ at the 2020 Golden Globes.
Elsewhere, Hildur Guðnadóttir also added to her collection of wins as the score she composed for Joker earned the 2020 Critics’ Choice honour, as well as a Golden Globe. At the 2019 Emmy Awards, her score for Chernobyl won the top prize.
