Disney+ is not welcome here. AARP The Magazine today announced its top picks for best television and film of the year in its Movies for Grownups Awards nominations, with (surprise) only grown-ups honored. Vietnam War films Da 5 Bloods and The Trial of the Chicago 7 led the pack with six nominations each, followed closely by One Night in Miami and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom with five. In a win for wizards everywhere, Harry Potter actors Ralph Fiennes and Gary Oldman were both nominated for Best Actor, and Glenn Close continued her awards reign with a Best Supporting Actress nod. George Clooney will be given the Career Achievement Award, proving that, sadly, he’s old now. The magazine also announced the award ceremony’s inaugural television categories, with Watchmen, Ozark, and Mrs. America each earning two nods apiece. Regina King is up for Best Television Actress in addition to directing One Night in Miami. If you’re an adult, you can tune in to PBS on March 28 at 8 p.m. to watch Hoda Kotb announce the winners.
