Luca Guadagnino’s romantic drama “Call Me by Your Name” has been named the best feature of 2017 at the IFP Gotham Awards, which are given out annually to celebrate the best in independent film.
The last three Gotham Award winners — “Birdman,” “Spotlight” and “Moonlight” — have gone on to win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.
Saoirse Ronan won the Best Actress award for “Lady Bird,” James Franco won Best Actor for “The Disaster Artist” and “Call Me by Your Name” actor Timothée Chalamet was named the breakthrough star of 2017.
Writer-director Jordan Peele won the Breakthrough Director award and the screenplay award for “Get Out.” His film also won the Gotham Audience Award, which is open to any film nominated in the Best Feature, Best Documentary and Breakthrough Director categories.
The FX series “Atlanta” won the award for the best longform television series.
Actor-filmmaker John Cameron Mitchell hosted the annual awards, an early entrant in the awards derby recognizing the year’s best independent cinema — and some television too.
Previously announced tributes went to director Sofia Coppola, actors Dustin Hoffman and Nicole Kidman, producer Jason Blum, cinematographer Ed Lachman and humanitarian and climate-change activist Al Gore. The cast of “Mudbound” won a special award for ensemble performance.
Over the 13 years since the Gotham Awards introduced the Best Feature category, the winner has subsequently won the Oscar only four times — but those four have all come in the last eight years, including the last three years in a row.
