USC Scripter Awards Winners: ‘Conclave’ Takes Top Film Prize, ‘Say Nothing’ Wins for TV
The 37th annual USC Libraries Scripter Awards see "Conclave," "A Complete Unknown," "Nickel Boys," "The Wild Robot" and "Sing Sing" competing.
Considered a strong indicator for the best adapted screenplay category at the Oscars, past Scripter winners that went on to win at the Academy Awards include “12 Years a Slave” (2013), “The Imitation Game” (2014), “The Big Short” (2015), “Moonlight” (2016), “Call Me by Your Name” (2017), “Nomadland” (2020), “Women Talking” (2022) and “American Fiction” (2023). To date, Spike Lee’s “BlacKkKlansman” (2019) and Sian Heder’s “CODA” (2022) are the only films to win the screenplay Oscar without also receiving a Scripter nomination. The USC Scripter Awards, founded in 1988, bring together the worlds of filmmaking and publishing in an academic setting to celebrate the best scripts of the year.
