All of Us Strangers Leads Dorian Film Awards Nominations


With a leading nine nominations, Andrew Haigh's All of Us Strangers dominated the just announced nominations for the 15th Annual Dorian Film Awards. In addition to Film of the Year and LGBT Film of the Year, the intriguing romantic drama picked up three acting nods (for Andrew Scott, Claire Foy and Paul Mescal) as well as nominations in the new categories LGBT Screenplay and Genre Film of the Year. Box office behemoth Barbie and arthouse faves May December, Past Lives and Poor Things join Strangers in the Film of the Year race.

Presented by GALECA: The Society of LGBT Entertainment Critics (of which I and Movie Dearest contributor Chris Carpenter are long-time members), the Dorian Award winners will be announced on February 26th. See the comments section below for the full list of nominees.
