And Pedro Almodovar’s retro romp I’m So Excited! took Campy Flick honours. Gravity was chosen as Visually Striking Film. In the more unusual film categories, Kill Your Darlings, the fact-based biopic involving a young and wild Allen Ginsberg (played by Daniel Radcliffe) and Short Term 12, the provocative drama set at an at-risk center for teens, tied for Unsung Film of the Year. The film is a heartfelt and eye-opening expose of how inequalities in the legal system only add to the grief of LGBTs who have lost their life partner. There was praise too for the extremely moving Bridegroom, which took Documentary of the Year. The French lesbian romance took both Foreign Language Film of the Year and LGBT Film of the Year. GALECA also had plenty of love for Palm d’Or winner Blue is the Warmest Color. They have handed Steve McQueen’s tragic slavery-era drama 12 Years a Slave the gong for Film of the Year, while Film Performance of the Year – Actor went to Matthew McConaughey for his work in Dallas Buyers Club as AIDS affected Ron Woodroof, and Cate Blanchett took Film Performance of the Year – Actress for her turn as a troubled socialite in Blue Jasmine. After the recent announcement of the nominations, GALECA (Gay & Lesbian Entertainment Critics Association) has announced the winners of its annual Dorian Awards.
