A Different Man won best feature at the 2024 Gotham Awards, while Nickel Boys and Sing Sing each won two awards at the star-studded award ceremony at New York’s Cipriani Wall Street on Monday night. Sean Baker’s Anora went into the night with the most nominations, four, but went home empty-handed.

A Different Man director Aaron Schimberg, accepting the top prize, said he was “totally stunned” by the win and admitted he didn’t have a speech prepared.

“I thought it would be, considering the other nominees, hubris to even consider preparing a speech. So I’m going to wing this,” Schimberg said before thanking the Gothams and the team behind the film, including stars Sebastian Stan and Adam Pearson.

Nickel Boys was up for three awards in total, with the additional nominations for RaMell Ross coming in the Best Director category and Brandon Wilson for Breakthrough Performer. Both won in their categories.

Sing Sing won in both the lead and supporting performance categories, with Colman Domingo winning the lead award and Clarence Maclin winning Best Supporting Performance.

Babygirl, which like Different Man, went into the night up for two awards, also went home empty-handed, as did three-time nominee I Saw the TV Glow and double nominees Hard Truths and The Fire Inside.

This year marked the first time in several years in which TV categories were not presented during the fall awards show, as The Gotham recently broke those out into a separate TV awards ceremony, which takes place in June.

In addition to the competitive awards, the Gothams also honored the following people and films with tributes: The Piano Lesson received the Ensemble Tribute; Franklin Leonard and the Black List received the Anniversary Tribute; Angelina Jolie received the Performer Tribute for Maria; Zendaya received the Spotlight Tribute for Challengers; Sing Sing received the Social Justice Tribute; Denis Villeneuve received the Director Tribute for Dune: Part Two; Timothée Chalamet and James Mangold were honored with the Visionary Tribute for A Complete Unknown.
