‘Maria’ Wins Top Film Prize At American Society Of Cinematographers Awards: Full List – Deadline
By Erik Pedersen, Patrick Hipes
Maria cinematographer Edward Lachman took the marquee Theatrical Feature Film prize at the 39th annual ASC Awards, which were handed out Sunday night at the Beverly Hilton. It’s the first major award for the Netflix pic starring Angelina Jolie as Maria Callas. See the full winners list below.
The ASC’s Theatrical Feature Film prize winner has gone on to claim the Best Cinematography Oscar nearly half of the time — 18 times in its 38 years — including Hoyte van Hoytema for Oppenheimer last year. Maria also is up for the Best Cinematography Oscar, which is its only nomination. Lachman will vie for the prize against Lol Crawley (The Brutalist), Greig Fraser (Dune: Part Two) Paul Guilhaume (Emilia Pérez) and Jarin Blaschke (Nosferatu). All five also were up for the ASC Award tonight.
Ed Helms hosted the American Society of Cinematographers‘ ceremony, where Jomo Fray won the Spotlight Award for his work on Amazon MGM Studios’ Nickel Boys, and Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw took the Documentary Award for Gaucho Gaucho.
