Critics’Choice Awards 2025, trionfo per Anora

Assegnati i 30° Critics’ Choice Awards, i maggiori riconoscimenti al cinema e alla televisione organizzati come da tradizione dalla Broadcast Film Critics Association. Edizione imprevedibile che ha visto trionfare, sul filo di lana, Anora di Sean Baker.

Il film, snobbato settimane prima dai Golden Globe, vince solo il premio al miglior film, mentre dominano la serata titoli come Wicked (miglior regia a John M. Chu, scenografia e costumi), The Substance (miglior attrice a Demi Moore, sceneggiatura originale e trucco>) ed Emilia Pèrez, che si porta a casa tre riconoscimenti al film internazionale, attrice non protagonista a Zoe Salsdana e canzone originale.

Tra gli interpreti maschili, la spuntano rispettivamente Adrien Brody in The Brutalist e Kieran Culkin per A Real Pain.
