Coming-of-age drama “Call Me by Your Name” has scored six Spirit Award nominations, with “Good Time” and “Get Out” taking five each.
“Lady Bird” and “The Rider” earned four noms each. The nominations were announced on Tuesday morning by Lily Collins, Tessa Thompson, and Film Independent chief Josh Welsh at the Jeremy Hotel in West Hollywood.
The ceremony will take place on March 3 — the day before the Academy Awards — in a tent on the beach in Santa Monica, Calif. The show, now in its 33rd year, will be shown on IFC.
The Spirit Awards are voted on by members of Film Independent and require that films be produced in the U.S. for less than $20 million. In the last three years, “Moonlight,” “Spotlight,” and “Birdman” have won both the Spirit Award and Oscar best picture trophy.
