Big Little Lies, Shape of Water lead Critics’ Choice Award winners

‘Big Little Lies’ and ‘The Shape of Water’ were the big winners at the Critics’ Choice Awards on Thursday (11.01.18), picking up four prizes each.
The HBO drama scooped the Best Limited Series award, while there were also gongs for its stars Nicole Kidman, who was named Best Actress in a Movie Made for TV or Limited Series, Alexander Skarsgard and Laura Dern, who picked up Best Supporting Actor and Actress in a Movie Made for TV or Limited Series respectively.
The 50-year-old actress thanked her children – Isabella, 25, and Conor, 22, with ex-husband Tom Cruise, and Sunday, nine, and six-year-old Faith with spouse Keith Urban – in her speech, after previously coming under fire for not acknowledging her older kids in other awards acceptances.
She said: "I want to thank all of my children who show me so much love.
"I love being an actor. Thank you for letting me do it all the way through to this age and beyond. It really is an incredible honour.
"Every actor in this room knows you are only as good as the other actors you work with."
Meanwhile, ‘The Shape of Water’ was named Best Picture, while Guillermo del Toro scooped Best Director for his work on the movie, and it also received recognition for its score and production design.
The director was joined on stage at the Barker Hanger in Santa Monica by the movie’s stars Sally Hawkins and Octavia Spencer, as well as screenwriter Vanessa Taylor, as he picked up the award.
He said: "For everyone that has been unequal in working with women, let me show you who stands here with us and made this movie possible.
"Let me tell you one thing: you don’t know what you’re missing."
In the other big movie categories, ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ took the Best Ensemble prize, while Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell were awarded Best Actress and Best Supporting Actor.
