Joker has picked up its second major awards win of the season, scoring the top prize at the most prestigious cinematography festival of the year. Todd Phillips’ unique, gritty take on the titular DC villain won the top award at the Venice Film Festival back in August, which did much to boost the film’s perception as a bona fide awards season player.

The period piece directed by Peter Farrelly took home the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures at the 2019 Producers Guild Award, which took place on January 19.
