Every film is personal, said Steven Spielberg, “but The Fables was like moving back in with my parents and sisters. I would go straight into the house [production designer] Rick Carter designed the exact replica of the house I grew up in in Phoenix, Arizona. Everything in my bedroom from those years ended up on set. They say you can’t go home anymore. It’s not right, I went home every day.”
“My whole career, my job as I see it, is to be the accompanist and conductor of anything and everything you want to be the center of your attention – it could be an actor, a famous book, a big idea , a. .. high concept,” he said Sunday night at a packed and cavernous Cipriani 42nd Street in NYC as he accepted the Best Director award from the National Board of Review. But: “I realized for the first time that I can’t look behind a mothership or another T-Rex or a big mechanical shark” (alv. ET, Jurassic Park, Jaws) he said about shooting his autobiographical film.
The opportunity has Top Gun: Maverick Director Joseph Kosinki and cinematographer Claudio Miranda relive the thrill of placing six Imax cameras on an F18 fighter jet and maneuvering an aircraft carrier. The Tom Cruise star won Best Picture and Miranda for Outstanding Achievement in Cinematography. The prices were announced last month.
Michelle Yeoh, NBR Best Actress for Everything everywhere at once, she said in a moving speech about her early career in Hong Kong and the challenge of tackling typography in Hollywood, “so incredibly proud to be the first Asian actress to receive this honor in 45 years”. She and Spielberg received the two standing ovations of the night.
The Fables Helmer said he worried that the deeply personal film would “intrude into a private maze of memories that mean something to me and mean nothing to you.” But after 50 years of filmmaking, I’m sure. Never make a film you are sure of. I walk into the set every day and feel like I’m jumping off a cliff. And maybe I’ll fly and maybe I’ll fall, but all I know is that both the flights and the faceplants are necessary, useful, and meaningful…and the best chance to stay alive in our art.
He thanked his younger self in the film, actor Gabriel Labelle, who took home one of two Breakthrough Achievement awards To The star Danielle Deadwyler. He noted that when he was won by NBR for Best Director/Best Picture kingdom of the sun In 1987, Christian Bale received a special award for best performance by a teenage actor from the Org. “It means a lot to me that both times it was for a film where I had the rare privilege of introducing a brilliant new actor.”
The Banshees by Inisherin had a great presence on stage. Colin Farrell, NBR Best Actor, introduced by Ron Howard, compared his joy of being an actor to “being a child and falling in love with the night sky, falling in love with the stars and constellations and growing up as an astronaut.” I’m not confusing actors with astronauts, let’s get it straight. It’s normal [that] In such a formative phase of your life, something like the film seizes you [and] enabled me to understand the context of emotions. So not only did I experience my childhood home, I not only experienced the crap I saw at my school, I experienced so many different lives in so many different ways.
Howard, who directed Farrell Thirteen livesis a big fan of Martin McDonagh’s 2008 In Bruges, which also starred Farrell and Brendan Gleeson. He said he asked Farrell about a “successor.” The actor was embarrassed, according to Howard, saying, ‘I just got a script and it’s not a sequel, but Martin is going to put the band back together… It’s a crazy little story.'” McDonagh received the NBR Award for Best Preserved Original Screenplay and Gleeson for Best Supporting Actor for Banshees.
McDonagh thanked Searchlight Pictures and Film4 “for making the film” and – amid roars of laughter from the room – “for giving me absolutely no script notes, which is probably why I’m here tonight.”
“But this is also one of the reasons why I would like to come and work with you again.”
Santiago Mitres Argentina 1985 received an NBR prize for freedom of expression together with Laura Poitras All the beauty and the bloodshed. The story of how a prosecutor and a young lawyer stood up to the junta trial against the heads of Argentina’s bloody military dictatorship resonates, Miter said. Growing up in the 1980s, it was amazing “to see real justice unfold before my eyes.”
Poitras praised the film in her commentary, saying accountability is key. Her award-winning document in Venice about artist Nan Goldin’s protest against the Sackler family.
“There are currently individuals within the US government who have authorized torture and yet they have not been identified or held accountable. “Our country’s failure to be held accountable for crimes and atrocities has also allowed the Sackler family to evade criminal prosecution, despite a mountain of evidence linking them to the unprecedented deaths of countless people across this country,” Poitras said. said.
“The Department of Justice can still indict Richard Sackler, and it should. A country that does not face its crimes and atrocities can never say never again.”
