Un prophète (A Prophet) was the big winner on Saturday, February 27 at the 35th annual César Awards in Paris. It won nine of its thirteen nominations including Best Film, Best Director and two awards for its breakout star Tahar Rahim - Best Actor and Breakthrough Actor. Un prophète is France's nominee for the Best Foreign-Language Film Academy Award, and receives its Toronto release on March 5, 2010. Clint Eastwood's Gran Torino was a surprise winner in the Foreign Film category, beating out Avatar, Milk, Slumdog Millionaire, Panique au village (A Town Called Panic), Palme d'Or winner Das Weisse Band (The White Ribbon), and Canada's J’ai tué ma mere (I Killed My Mother).
On Friday night, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) hosted their Image Awards. Precious: Based on the Novel “Push” by Sapphire was the night's big winner, taking six trophies including Best Motion Picture and Best Independent Motion Picture. There was a moment of embarrassment when director Lee Daniels said, "No one in Hollywood told me they wanted to see a movie about a 350lb black girl who had HIV" before quickly correcting himself. "She's not 350lbs, Gabby," referring to the film's star Gabourey Sidibe. He awkwardly explained that was the description from the book.
On Thursday, the Costume Designers Guild (CDG) gave out their awards to film and television wardrobe artists. They recognize three categories in the area of film: contemporary, period and fantasy. These were won by Doug Hall (Crazy Heart), Sandy Powell (The Young Victoria), Monique Prudhomme (The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus) respectively. Sandy Powell also received a Career Achievement Award, having won Oscars for Shakespeare in Love and The Aviator.
Here are complete lists of winners for the César, NAACP Image, and CDG Awards.
