‘Tár’ and ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ Lead Gotham Awards Nominations: Complete List

Todd Field’s drama “Tár,” starring Cate Blanchett as a troubled musician, leads the pack with five nominations for the 2022 Gotham Awards, the Gotham Film & Media Institute announced on Tuesday in New York City by actress Angelica Ross (“Pose”) and the Gotham’s executive director Jeffery Sharp.

In the kick-off to the 2022 awards season, “Tár” was followed in the film nomination tally by “Aftersun,” which received four nominations, and “Everything Everywhere All at Once, “The Inspection,” and “Women Talking” with three nominations.

With 15 total nominations, indie distributor A24 decisively led the tally among studios, followed by Focus Features and United Artists Releasing, each with six nominations.

For the second consecutive year, the Gotham’s used gender neutral categories to highlight lead, supporting, and breakthrough performances. In the lead and supporting rosters, which each featured 10 nominees, the lists included 12 women and eight men.

The acting nominees included awards-season heat-seekers such as Brendan Fraser and Hong Chau (“The Whale”), Michelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan (“Everything Everywhere All at Once”), Jessie Buckley and Ben Whishaw (“Women Talking”), Danielle Deadwyler (“Till”) and Paul Mescal (“Aftersun”). Blanchett (“Tár”) was nominated in the lead category, while her costars Nina Hoss and Noémie Merlant were cited in the supporting category.

Colin Farrell was nominated for his lead performance in the sci-fi film “After Yang,” which was released in March. Farrell was ineligible at the Gothams for his widely-praised work in Martin McDonagh’s “The Banshees of Inisherin,” an Irish production that was included in the Best International Film category.

Gotham Awards eligibility is restricted to films directed and/or produced and/or written by U.S. citizens or filmmakers permanently based in the United States. Eligible titles must run more than 70 minutes and with a budget of less than $35 million. Films must also qualify as “filmmaking with a point of view,” which the Gothams define as a work “where the vision of an individual director, producer, writer or writer/director is abundantly evident, and where the film cannot be classically defined as a ‘work for hire.’”

(The show’s special tribute categories are not bound by those rules.)

In the 18 years the Gotham Awards have given out a Best Feature award, 23 Gotham nominees have gone on to receive Oscar nominations for Best Picture. The Gotham winner has won the Oscar only five times, most recently with “Nomadland” in 2020.

The Gotham nominations were chosen by a number of different committees made up of critics, journalists, curators and festival programmers.

The Gotham Awards ceremony will take place on Monday, Nov. 28 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.  As previously announced, “Hustle” star Adam Sandler and “The Fabelmans” star Michelle Williams will receive Performer Tributes at the show, while the cast of Andrew Ahn’s “Fire Island” will receive the Ensemble Tribute.
