Daniel Kaluuya to receive Creative Impact in Acting award

"Get Out" star Daniel Kaluuya will be honoured with creative impact in acting award at the 2018 Palm Springs International Film Festival.
The award, to be presented at the annual brunch on January 3, will recognise his performance in Jordan Peele's social satire, reported Variety.
Kaluuya has already received Golden Globes, SAG Awards, and Critics' Choice nominations this awards season.
"If there's one performance in 2017 that embodied the general political angst of post-Trump America and the specific anger and anxiety of Americans of colour, it's Daniel Kaluuya's deft, rich, layered portrayal of Chris Washington in Jordan Peele's groundbreaking film 'Get Out'.

"The terror, tension, humour, and fury of this powerfully effective cinematic balancing act all rests on the shoulders of this brilliant young British actor who communicates universal anxieties without ever losing the essential home address of his beleaguered African-American hero," Steven Gaydos, vice president and executive editor of Variety, said.
Patty Jenkins and Aaron Sorkin will also be honoured at the film festival, with Jenkins receiving the creative impact in directing award for "Wonder Woman" and Sorkin getting the creative impact in screenwriting award for "Molly's Game.
