SXSW: Audience Award Winners Include 'Krisha,' 'Hello, My Name is Doris' And 'Peace Officer'
SXSW is over, and our team is sending their clothes to the dry cleaners to figure out how to get out stains from five different barbecue sauces, but organizers in Austin have one more thing left to announce. Following the Jury awards last week, they've unveiled the Audience Awards and there are a couple of notable crossover winners.
Trey Edward Shults' drama "Krisha," (our review) and Scott Christopherson and Brad Barber's documentary "Peace Officer" (our review) repeated their victories in the Narrative Feature and Documentary Feature slots. Meanwhile, audiences gave their approval to the Sally Field starring "Hello, My Name is Doris" and Todd Rohal's oddball sequel "Uncle Kent 2.""Turbo Kid" is also continuing to pick up buzz following its Sundance premiere with a win here.
Check out the full list of winners below.
