Ford v. Ferrari wins five Satellite Awards
To the unfamiliar, the below list of award winners might look like an extraordinary endorsement for Ford v. Ferrari, a movie that's been humming around the edge of the big-time so far this awards season. Could this be its big breakthrough? Alas, no, it's just the Satellite Awards, the only (arguably) notable contribution to the world each year from the comically-named International Press Academy. They're the 'critics' who couldn't stomach being members of the almost-equally comically-named Hollywood Foreign Press Association (who decide upon the Golden Globes), and so created this even-more irrelevant splinter group, with its even more laughable tastes.
Ford v. Ferrari is, by all means, one of the most Satellite Awards-y movies ever made. Ditto Motherless Brooklyn, which puts up a remarkably strong showing here, to no-one's surprises and to no-one's particular pleasure, except perhaps Edward Norton. If you're looking for the nominations list (though why would you?), you won't find it here, because I couldn't be bothered publishing it.
