Filipino actress Dolly De Leon is now in the United States to attend the 80th Golden Globe Awards, to be held in Beverly Hills, California, where she is nominated for Best Supporting Actress in the Film category.
Cruz said the gathering may also be considered a “victory dinner” since De Leon already won another accolade from the LA Film Critics Association Awards — the first Filipino to have done so — for her work in Swedish filmmaker Ruben Ostlund’s satirical black comedy, “Triangle of Sadness.”
It is for this same movie that she is now in the US to attend the Golden Globes, for which she has been nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Category. “Triangle of Sadness” already, and is still rallying for the Oscars. Cruz said he was able to watch the film while onboard a place from San Francisco to New York last December and he felt proud of De Leon’s achievements as a Filipino actor.
“It was also a victory dinner as she already won an award from the LA Film Critics Association, and we are praying for an Oscar nomination too… I should say, as a Filipino, her recognition is something that we should be proud of, as she carries our country’s name. To Ms. Dolly De Leon, you make us proud! Mabuhay Ka at ang bansang Pilipinas! God bless you!” he said on Instagram.
Aside from De Leon, four other actresses are vying for the same category, namely: Angela Bassett , Kerry Condon , Jamie Lee Curtis , and Carey Mulligan .
