The winners have been highlighted below.

The awards were presented Monday night. The show will be broadcast February 15th on PBS.

Green Book won Best Picture, Spike Lee Best Director, Viggo Mortensen Best Actor, Glenn Close Best Actress, Richard E. Grant Best Supporting Actor, Judi Dench Best Supporting Actress and Shirley MacLaine won a career achievement award while Bohemian Rhapsody won Best Ensemble. All the winners except for Dench are Oscar nominees this year, something unusual for this group which has never claimed to be an Oscar forecaster. You have to be over 50 to be nominated for individual awards.

It had a limited Oscar qualifying run beginning December 21st in New York and L.A.

It's doubtful if it will go anywhere in 2019 except straight to video.

How many people have actually heard of "All is True"? I think it was a horrible idea to release this movie so limited that I don't even think I saw one ad for it. Where did it play? It's wider releasing sometime this year... so I'm not gonna even count it as a 2018 movie.
