Big Sick
OFCS 2017 awards winners announced
Get Out wins Best Film and Best Original Screenplay. Call Me by Your Name, Dunkirk, and Three Billboards also take two awards each.
I’m on BBC World Service’s “The Arts Hour” on Sunday July 30th
We’ll be talking about Dunkirk, The Beguiled, The Big Sick, and lots of other artsy stuff.
