Lee Daniels’ historical drama “The United States vs. Billie Holiday” has been named the year’s best picture by the AARP Movies for Grownups Awards, which will celebrate its winners during a PBS broadcast on March 28.
Sophia Loren and Anthony Hopkins were named Best Actress and Best Actor for their performances in “The Life Ahead” and “The Father,” respectively, while supporting awards went to Jodie Foster for “The Mauritanian” and Demián Bichir for “Land.”
“The Trial of the Chicago 7” was the only film to win two awards, with Aaron Sorkin taking prizes for his directing and his screenplay.
In the four television categories, which were given out for the first time this year, “This Is Us” was named best series, “The Queen’s Gambit” won for best limited series or TV movie and Catherine O’Hara (“Schitt’s Creek”) and Mark Ruffalo (“I Know This Much Is True”) took the acting awards.
