The
three-hour epic, which takes audiences back to the making of the
atomic bomb during World War Two, scooped the Darryl F. Zanuck
Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures, a
day after its cast won prizes at Hollywood's Screen Actors Guild
(SAG) Awards.
The film stars Cillian Murphy as American theoretical physicist
J. Robert Oppenheimer.
Murphy won best actor in a leading role at the SAG Awards and
his co-star Robert Downey Jr. took the best supporting actor
title. The film, directed by Briton Christopher Nolan, also took
those awards' top honour - best cast in a motion picture.
Among its other awards, "Oppenheimer" won best film at the BAFTA
Film Awards in London earlier this month and best motion picture
- drama at the Golden Globes in January.
Other winners at Sunday's PGA Awards, held in Hollywood,
included "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse", documentary
"American Symphony" and television shows "The Bear",
"Succession" and "Beef".
Veteran filmmaker Martin Scorsese was also honoured with the
David O. Selznick Achievement Award.
