Top Gun: Maverick, the sensation of the year, had to win one of these things, right? Well, the NBR came down for it, handing the movie Best Picture and Cinematography. I think it’ll probably get an Oscar nomination too. The other favorite of this group was The Banshees of Inisherin, which got three awards here.
