“Sinners” emerged as the year’s standout with 7 wins at the Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics Dorian Film Awards.
The horror epic became one of the few recent blockbusters to sweep the Dorians’ top prizes earning Film of the Year and snagging a number of honors across major categories, including Director of the Year for Ryan Coogler, who was also named Wilde Artist of the Year.
Other winners included Rose Byrne took home the award for Film Performance of the Year, while Amy Madigan earned Supporting Film Performance of the Year for movie “Weapons”.
“In an era when spectacle often eclipses substance, Sinners reminded us that a blockbuster can also be strong, political, and profoundly human,” said GALECA Executive Director Diane Anderson-Minshall. “Our members were struck by its fearless storytelling, its powerful ensemble performances, and its examination of community, resilience, and moral complexity across histories too often pushed to the margins. The sweep at this year’s Dorian Awards reflects a rare alignment of critical admiration and cultural urgency, and reminds us why cinema still matters.”
