Winner of numerous awards in the U.S. in 2018, The Favourite proved even more popular overseas taking four prizes from the European Film Awards, including both Best European Film and Best European Comedy. There isn’t much to say about these except that in all the categories not won by The Favourite, someone won that has a either a small or medium-sized chance at Oscar nominations.
