GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics, consisting of over 500 entertainment critics, journalists and media icons, today announced the group’s democratically chosen nominees for its 15th Dorian Film Awards. All of Us Strangers, writer-director Andrew Haigh’s eerie, devastating—yet ultimately spirited—probing of connection and self-love, led the journalists’ picks for the best of 2023 movies, receiving 9 nods including Film of the Year. Joining Strangers in the top race: Director Greta Gerwig’s rainbow-hued feminist fable Barbie (7 nominations), Todd Haynes’ May December (6), Past Lives (5), and Poor Things (4).
