In a surprising but well-deserved twist at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards 2023, the best actor honor went to Franz Rogowski for his portrayal of a charming yet selfish character in Ira Sacks' drama Passages. In the film, he played a character named Tomas.
In a super competitive field, Rogowski came out on top, beating out big names like Cillian Murphy, Ryan Gosling, Paul Giamatti, and Leonardo DiCaprio. It just goes to show that his performance stood out among the rest.
It's really commendable that they're recognizing Rogowski's awesome and multi-layered performance in Passages. It's not what fans would typically expect, but they're giving credit where credit is due and showing that his character has a lot of depth and complexity.
Scorsese's Killers of The Flower Moon blooms: Best film and best actress awards
No surprises here; Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon snagged the top prize for Best Film at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards 2023. And to add to the excitement, Lily Gladstone, the film's leading lady, walked away with the Best Actress award, kickstarting her award season with a bang.
Even though the first part of the movie duo Barbie and Oppenheimer, also known as 'Barbenheimer', didn't get much attention, Christopher Nolan came out on top and won Best Director in the second half.
