AARP The Magazine’s 18th Annual Movies for Grownups Awards were held recently in Beverly Hills, celebrating 2018’s standout films with unique appeal to movie lovers with a grownup state of mind and recognizing the inspiring artists who make them.
Co-produced by the PBS Great Performances series, the Movies for Grownups Awards will be broadcast on Friday, February 15 at 9:00 p.m. on PBS (check local listings) and will stream the following day on pbs.org/moviesforgrownups and PBS apps.
Hosted by actor and comedian Martin Short, the star-studded awards ceremony included a touching tribute to Career Achievement Award honoree Shirley MacLaine. Other highlights of the evening included a special appearance by Michael Douglas, who presented his Fatal Attraction co-star Glenn Close with Best Actress honors for her role in The Wife; Mahershala Ali who handed his co-star Viggo Mortensen the Best Actor award for Green Book; and Spike Lee received a standing ovation when he was awarded Best Director by actor Topher Grace, one of the stars of BlacKkKlansman.
