“Roma” and “The Americans” Win Big at Critics’ Choice Awards

Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys in "The Americans"

Roma is one of the most critically acclaimed movies of the year, so it doesn’t come as a surprise to hear it topped the list of winners at this year’s Critics’ Choice Awards. Alfonso Cuarón’s black and white masterpiece scooped four shinny trophies by the end of the night.

Roma won in four categories: best picture, director, cinematography and foreign film. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Cuarón picking up these same awards at a couple more awards ceremonies, since he’s a front runner in at least two of these categories.

When it comes to TV, last season of The Americans came out swinging, and ended up winning a total of three awards. Same goes for critically beloved comedy series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, which went against tough competition to win three trophies.

Just like every other awards ceremony, Critics’ Choice Awards also brought a couple of pleasant surprises – most notably, two ties! Glenn Close and Lady Gaga shared the podium while accepting best actress award, and Amy Adams and Patricia Arquette did the same after scoring a win for best actress in a limited series.
