European Film Awards Nominations: ‘Cold War’ Leads, Followed by ‘Dogman,’ ‘Border,’ and ‘Happy as Lazzaro’
Paweł Pawlikowski’s “Cold War” leads the pack in this year’s European Film Awards, picking up five nominations after winning Best Director laurels earlier this year at Cannes. The black-and-white romance is followed closely by Matteo Garrone’s “Dogman,” Alice Rohrwacher’s “Happy as Lazzaro,” and Ali Abassi’s “Border,” all of which also picked up awards on the Croisette (Best Actor, Best Screenplay, and the Prix Un Certain Regard, respectively) and now find themselves with four nods apiece.
This year’s ceremony takes place on December 15 in Seville, Spain. Here’s the full list of nominations:
