Laura Dern Is Celebrated By The Gay Men’s Chorus For The Icon She Is

Marriage Story actress Laura Dern gets celebrated in this hilarious performance from the Gay Men’s Chorus at the Film Independent Spirit Awards.

Actress Laura Dern was recently the spotlight of a performance from the Gay Men’s Chorus at the Film Independent Spirit Awards. During the yearly awards ceremony, statues went home with many of the films “snubbed” by the Academy, including The Farewell and Uncut Gems.

Founded in 1984, the Film Independent Spirit Awards celebrates independent filmmakers or those who’ve made their films on a budget of less than $20 million. In the case of this year’s awards show, the nominees included films like the aforementioned Uncut Gems, The Farewell, as well Honey Boy, Booksmart, and Midsommar among others. The Farewell took home the night’s top prize of Best Feature and Best Supporting Female for Zhao Shuzhen. Uncut Gems, however, was the big winner of the night with three awards: Best Male Lead for Adam Sandler, Best Director Ronald Bronstein and Benny Safdie, and Best Editing. Oscar-favorites were still present, though, and in some cases even won. Marriage Story, for instance, nabbed a Best Screenplay win for Noah Baumbach, but it was a serenade of one of the film’s stars, Laura Dern, that stole the show.
