The mystery thriller “Gone Girl” received the equivalent of the best picture award at Friday night’s 18th annual Hollywood Film Awards, while “The Imitation Game” won for directing and in two acting categories as the movie industry’s awards season began.
Morten Tyldum won the Hollywood Director Award for helming the biopic of World War II codebreaker and pioneering computer scientist Alan Turing, set to be released in the U.S. on Nov. 28.
The lead acting awards went to Benedict Cumberbatch for his portrayal of Turing and Julianne Moore for her title role in “Still Alice” as a psychologist diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s disease. It is set for a weeklong Oscar-qualifying run next month and a wider release on Jan. 16.
The supporting acting awards went to Keira Knightly for “The Imitation Game” and Robert Duvall for “The Judge.”
