As mentioned, TÁR’s Todd Field won Best Director. ‘Everything Everywhere’ filmmakers The Daniels did not even get the runner-up spot, instead that went to RRR’s SS Rajamouli. The LAFCA also went gender neutral this year and yet they managed to reward, in all the acting categories a male and a female performance. What was the point of going gender-neutral if you’re just going to chicken out? There was also a nice little Oscar push for acting winners Ke Huy Quan (Everything Everywhere All At Once), Dolly de Leon (Triangle of Sadness) Cate Blanchett (TÁR), and Bill Nighy (Living). —————— Best Picture: EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE and TAR (tie) Best Director: Todd Field, TAR Best Runner-up: S.S.
