Il fenomeno indie scritto e diretto da Jordan Peele diventa il maggior titolo low budget a vincere gli Independent Spirit Awards, il più prestigioso premio del cinema indipendente americano che, come da tradizione, viene assegnato il giorno prima degli Academy Awards.
Scappa – Get Out trionfa con i riconoscimenti al film e alla regia, mentre alla sceneggiatura sgambetto finale di Greta Gerwig per il suo acclamato film Lady Bird. Tra gli attori conferme per Frances McDormand, Sam Rockwell, Allison Janney e il giovane Timothée Chalamet, che beneficia per una volta dell’assenza in competizione di Gary Oldman.
