The gala night of the 12th British Independent Film Awards has been held on Sunday, December 6 at The Brewery, Chiswell Street in London. During the award ceremony, "Moon" and "Fish Tank" were shining brighter than other movies as they took home two kudos each.
Nominated in six categories, the sci-fi thriller starring Sam Rockwell was crowned as the Best British Independent Film. The Sony Pictures Classics' movie that follows a man, who lives with a computer at a manufacturing base on the Moon, also aided its director Duncan Jones to receive Douglas Hickox Award or the Best Debut Director kudo.
Meanwhile, "Fish Tank" which dominated the nomination with eight nods managed to nail two of the coveted awards given away. The drama film has brought recognition to its helmer Andrea Arnold who received the Best Director prize. The movie also earned Katie Jarvis the Most Promising Newcomer award.
Other winners at the annual award event included Carey Mulligan who was named the Best Actress through her performance in "An Education", and "In The Loop" scribes, Jesse Armstrong, Armando Iannucci, Tony Roche, and Simon Blackwell, who shared Best Screenplay award. Additionally, Michael Caine was honored with The Variety Award, while Daniel Day-Lewis showed up on the stage that night to receive the Richard Harris Award (for Outstanding Contribution to British Film).
