Set Decorators Society of America (SDSA) winners: ‘The Power of the Dog,’ ‘Dune,’ ‘Being the Ricardos’ take top prizes
The Set Decorators Society of America (SDSA) have revealed their winners for the best in set decoration and design for feature films of 2021 and Being the Ricardos, Dune, No Time to Die and The French Dispatch all earned wins from the group, who are in their second year as an awards body.
Of those winners, only Dune is Oscar-nominated in the category of Production Design, which also recognizes a film’s set decorator. Films there that were also nominated by the SDSA include Nightmare Alley, The Power of the Dog, The Tragedy of Macbeth and West Side Story.
The SDSA also awarded The Power of the Dog the designation of Best Picture, an award outside of the scope of set decoration (where it was a nominee) and selected by the group.
