A version of this story about Martin McDonagh and “The Banshees of Inisherin” first appeared in the Down to the Wire issue of TheWrap’s awards magazine.
Seventeen years after winning an Oscar with “Six Shooter,” an uproarious and touching short film starring Brendan Gleeson, and 14 years after making his feature directing debut with “In Bruges,” British-Irish playwright turned moviemaker Martin McDonagh now has his most successful movie for awards. “The Banshees of Inisherin,” a black comedy that reunites the “In Bruges” team of Gleeson and Colin Farrell, won four awards from BAFTA at the British Academy Film Awards, as well as taking the musical or comedy Golden Globe over Academy Award frontrunner “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” It also received nine Oscar nominations, two more than McDonagh’s previous high of seven for 2017’s “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.”

The 2023 SAG Awards brought several memorable moments, but it also brought together a new perfect pair.
Jenna Ortega and Aubrey Plaza took the stage Sunday night to present an award for best male actor in a television movie or limited series, and their similar grim vibes were one to remember.
As they approached the microphone, both showcasing their iconic deadpan stare for several seconds, The White Lotus actress said, “I don’t know why they paired us up together.” To which the Wednesday star responded, “Yeah, I know, we have nothing in common.”
“We should find the people who did this,” Plaza added before Ortega jumped in and the two said in unison, “And curse their families and watch as misfortune follows their bloodline for the next seven generations.”
“Okay, I see it now,” the Emily the Criminal star said in reference to why the duo was paired together, drawing laughter from the crowd.
