Steven Spielberg was one of the biggest winners of the night, winning Best Director and Best Motion Picture – Drama for his semi-autobiographical passion project, The Fabelmans. Martin McDonagh matched Spielberg with two wins, Best Screenplay and Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, for The Banshees of Inisherin. McDonagh’s star in Banshees, Colin Farrell, took home Best Actor – Musical or Comedy while Austin Butler won Best Actor – Drama for his turn as Elvis Presley in Elvis.

Jennifer Coolidge arguably stole the night with her acceptance speech for her supporting win as Tanya McQuoid-Hunt in The White Lotus. Meanwhile, HBO asserted its dominance, winning Best Drama for House of the Dragon and Best Limited or Anthology Series or Television Film for The White Lotus.

This Anne Hathaway thriller is 2023’s freakiest movie. Here’s why you should watch it
A woman smokes with another woman in Eileen.

Early December is the time to attend to the usual list of things to do before the year ends, such as pay overdue bills, buy those last-minute gifts, or grudgingly attend painfully awkward Christmas parties. It's also a time to feast on the best cinema has to offer, as studios and independent distributors alike release movie after movie designed to win awards and the stone-cold hearts of critics worldwide.

Chances are, you've seen Oppenheimer, and have at least heard of Killers of the Flower Moon, Napoleon, or The Holdovers. All of those movies are excellent and deserve to be seen, but there's one movie that's flying under the radar that's equally worthy of attention. Eileen is being marketed as a thriller, and while it does have its share of thrills, it's so much more than that. It's also a great atmospheric mood piece and an excellent showcase for two actresses at the top of their game. It also possesses one of the most infuriating endings of the year. Eileen is freaky (you just never know quite where it's going) and indefinable, and it's 2023's most beguiling movie.
Eileen has a great sense of time and place
