2014 Indie SPIRIT Awards Winners


     And a very great night for 12 Years a Slave. One of the best films of the year took home 5 awards at this years Film Independent Spirit Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography and Best Supporting Actress for Lupita Nyong'o. A big night (afternoon) and lets hope it is duplicated tomorrow night. The Dallas Buyers Club boys won both male acting categories and Cate Blanchett kept he winning ways going with a Best Actress victory. Oscars are tomorrow night. I think the acting categories will mimic the Spirit Awards and I hope Best Picture and Best Screenplay (adapted) does as well. Here is a complete list of winners. Enjoy!
