The Critics Choice Association held their 27th annual Critics Choice Awards on Sunday, March 13 concurrently in Los Angeles and London, with the ceremony broadcast Stateside on TBS and The CW. While Steven Spielberg’s remake of West Side Story and Kenneth Branagh’s semi-autobiographical drama Belfast  led all films with 11 nominations each, and both Denis Villeneuve’s Dune and Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog scored 10 apiece, no film outright dominated the evening. West Side Story won two awards, Belfast and Dune took home three, and The Power of the Dog nabbed four, ultimately winning both Best Picture and Best Director. The acting awards were also spread across multiple films, with Will Smith winning Best Actor for King Richard, Jessica Chastain winning Best Actress for The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Troy Kotsur winning Best Supporting Actor for CODA, and Ariana DeBose winning Best Supporting Actress for West Side Story.

It was a similar story on the television side, with awards spread fairly evenly among a handful of prominent nominees. Apple TV+’s Ted Lasso led the way with four trophies, winning in every category for which it was nominated, including Best Comedy Series. While HBO’s Succession also took home three awards of its own, including Best Drama Series, Netflix’s runaway hit from South Korea, Squid Game, pulled off a surprising win as Lee Jung-jae was awarded Best Actor in a Drama Series.

Read on for the full list of winners.
