Aaron Sorkin’s “The Trial of the Chicago 7” will receive the Ensemble Tribute at this year’s Gotham Awards from the Independent Filmmaker Project.
The Ensemble Tribute was previously a juried award, but as of this year it will be a separate tribute and it will now honor the performances of a group of dynamic and noteworthy cast onscreen and celebrate their collective effort and contributions to the film’s narrative.
The Gotham Awards have already announced that Viola Davis and Chadwick Boseman would be recognized as individual performers, as would Steve McQueen and Ryan Murphy for “Small Axe” and “The Prom” and their careers respectively.
