2022 Utah Film Critics Association: ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’ wins 10 awards

Everything Everywhere All At Once dominated the 2022 Utah Film Critics Association awards announced today, with 10 wins overall. The film was recognized as Best Picture as well as for Best Achievement in Directing and Original Screenplay by Daniel Kwan and Dan Scheinert, Best Lead Female Performance for Michelle Yeoh, Best Supporting Female Performance for Stephanie Hsu, Best Supporting Male Performance for Ke Huy Quan, Ensemble Cast, Film Editing and Visual Effects.

That left room for just a handful of films to earn prizes, including The Banshees of Inisherin (Best Actor, Best Original Score, tied with EEAAO for Original Screenplay).

Marcel the Shell With Shoes On won Best Animated Feature, and also tied for the Best Adapted Screenplay by Dean Fleischer-Camp and Jenny Slate. Sarah Polley’s screenplay for Women Talking shared the Adapted Screenplay Award. Documentary Feature went to Wildcat, and Non-English Language feature to RRR.
