The British Independent Film Awards, held on Sunday, December 6th, saw Anne-Marie Duff win the prize for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Sam Taylor Wood’s ‘Nowhere Boy’. Daniel Day Lewis (There Will be Blood) was also honored with the Richard Harris Award.

Anne-Marie Duff won her award for playing the role of Julia, John Lennon’s mother, in the biopic ‘Nowhere Boy’ which deals with the musician’s turbulent early years.

Daniel Day-Lewis’ career was lauded with the presentation to him of the Richard Harris for an Outstanding Contribution by an Actor award. Named after the Limerick-born actor due to his iconic career, the award seeks to honour those whose careers have contributed widely to cinema and who embody the festival’s independent spirit.

The British independent Film Awards ceremony, hosted by NI actor James Nesbitt (Occupation), is the eleventh of its kind. Created in 1998, the awards look to celebrate achievement in independently funded British filmmaking, to honour new talent, and to promote British films and filmmaking to a wider public.
