Saoirse is nominated at London Film Awards

Saoirse has received a nomination for Best British/Irish Actress at the London Film Awards! After complaints that the category referred to Saoirse, Colin Farrell and Michael Fassbender as ‘British’ actors, the London Film Critics Circle changed the names of the categories in which they were nominated to include the word ‘Irish’, which is why they are different from the past years.

Cate Blanchett, “Carol”
Brie Larson, “Room”
Rooney Mara, “Carol”
Charlotte Rampling, “45 Years”
Saoirse Ronan, “Brooklyn”

British/Irish Film of the Year
