AWARDS: 7th Annual Chicago Indie Critic Windie Award Nominations

THE DANIELS’ EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE DOMINATES THE NEW “WINDIE” AWARD NOMINATIONS FROM THE CHICAGO INDIE CRITICS

Celebrating their seventh year, the Chicago Indie Critics have announced the nominees for their newly-named film awards. Welcome to the era of “The Windies.” The voting film critic members completed ballots this week to select Windie nominees in 25 categories. The CIC members will commence a final round of voting ending on January 13, 2023. The 2022 Windie winners will be announced on the evening of January 21, 2023, during their annual Awards Party event held at the Music Box Theatre Lounge in Chicago. The program will stream live online on the CIC YouTube channel.

Leading all films with 14 formidable nominations is Everything Everywhere All at Once, written and directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert. In addition to triple nominations for The Daniels in Best Independent Film, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay, their A24 sci-fi dramedy carried nominations for Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Ensemble, and seven artistic and technical categories. 

The next closest films for total nominations were a group of four films each with six nominations. That tier includes Steven Spielberg’s passion project The Fabelmans, Netflix’s animated opus Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, the foreign sensation RRR from director S.S. Rajamouli, and the popular Tom Cruise blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick. In total, 20 films received multiple nominations and 39 films overall were represented across all categories.

As a special category of local recognition, the CIC annually presents the Impact Award. The distinction celebrates a group or person whose work during the past year or beyond made a positive influence within the Chicagoland film community. This year’s Impact Award nominees include Rebecca Fons of The Gene Siskel Film Center, Morgan Harris of the Acacia Consulting Group, CEO Chris Johnson of Classic Cinemas, the late Chicago film critic Sergio Mims, and the staff and management of the Music Box Theatre.
