Also winning three awards was “Emilia Pérez” (Netflix), for Supporting Actress Zoe Saldaña, who gave a teary speech, International Feature, and Song “El Mal.” All three could win on Oscar night, although “I’m Still Here” (Sony Pictures Classics), also nominated for Best Picture and Actress, is moving up fast. It was a good night for the French.

Award season is upon us and up next are the Critics' Choice Awards. Held annually since 1996, the Critics' Choice Awards recognize the finest in cinematic achievement, honoring both films and television.

The Critics Choice Awards, which were hosted for a third year in a row by Chelsea Handler, has traditionally been a good Oscar bellwether. Last year, eventual Best Picture Oscar winner Oppenheimer scored a leading eight wins here including the marquee Best Picture prize that Anora just snagged.
