Wilson Webb(NEW YORK) — Marriage Story, Noah Baumbach’s relationship drama, has been generating a lot of Oscar buzz, and it took a step closer at Monday’s Gotham Independent Film Awards, grabbing all four awards for which it was nominated, including best feature film, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The film, which stars Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver as a divorcing couple negotiating custody of their son, also won best screenplay for Baumbach and best actor for Driver.
Best Actress honors went to Awkwafina for her role in The Farewell.
On the TV side, When They See Us won in the breakthrough series longform category, and PEN15 in the shortform category.
Previously announced tribute award recipients included actors Laura Dern and Sam Rockwell, and director Ava DuVernay.
