2020 Golden Adam Award Winners!

As some of you may have seen, the Golden Adam Award winners were announced live on Facebook in a thrilling and emotional awards ceremony.  For those who may have missed it, here are the winners!

Drama

Best Picture



Much like the Oscars, Parasite took home the big prize at the Golden Adams just beating out 1917, Ford v Ferrari, and Bombshell.  It is a most deserving winner as it is one of the most original scripts I've seen in years.  If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it, and if you're anything like me, you will be thinking about it long after the final credits roll.

Best Actor

The winner here is Adam Driver for his powerhouse performance in Marriage Story.  He was really good and very deserving.

Best Actress

Saoirse Ronan wins for Little Women in a bit of a surprise.  I actually enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would, mostly because of Ronan's performance, which is fantastic.

Best Supporting Actor

It's official, Brad Pitt has now swept all the major awards.  He was the best part of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Best Supporting Actress

This was a really close vote and Margot Robbie narrowly beat out Jennifer Lopez and So-Dam Park for her role in Bombshell.  The movie was excellent and featured outstanding performances by all involved, so it's nice to see Robbie get recognized.

Comedy

Best Picture



In one of the closer races, Knives Out beat Jojo Rabbit by one vote to take the prize.  Both movies were excellent and would be deserving winners, but Knives Out was probably the most fun I had in a theater all year.

Best Actor

Daniel Craig wins for Knives Out.  He was great!

Best Actress

In an absolute runaway vote, Ana de Armas wins for her performance in Knives Out. 

Best Supporting Actor

Continuing the Knives Out dominance in this category, Chris Evans takes home the prize.  He was excellent, but if you haven't seen Jumanji: The Next Level, you should if only for Kevin Hart's hilarious performance.

Best Supporting Actress

Knives Out couldn't quite pull off the sweep, as Scarlett Johansson wins for her amazing performance in Jojo Rabbit.  She was absolutely wonderful in this film and I really wanted her to win the Oscar, so I'm glad she won the Golden Adam.

Action

Best Picture



Avengers Assemble!!  Endgame was one of my favorite movies of the year, and now it is a Golden Adam winner.

Best Actor

The Avengers wouldn't be the Avengers without Tony Stark/Iron Man, and Robert Downey Jr. had the perfect send off in Endgame.  Now he gets to call himself a Golden Adam award winner.

Best Actress

While some Star Wars fans may not have liked The Rise of Skywalker, I loved it.  Mostly because of Daisy Ridley as Rey.  She was great and a deserving winner for Best Actress.

Best Supporting Actor

In probably the least surprising vote of all, Paul Rudd is the runaway winner for Avengers: Endgame.  Everyone loves Paul Rudd and was fantastic and hilarious as usual, despite playing Ant-Man.

Best Supporting Actress

Carrie Fisher.  Enough said.

Thank you to all who voted this year.  It's always fun for me to see which movies are liked by everyone else.  Congrats to the winners and make sure you all tune in next year to vote again!
