The Hollywood Critics Association Film Awards nominations are out, and Netflix’s film adaptation of the late Jonathan Larson’s rock monologue tick, tick…BOOM! has received eight nominations.

The tick, tick…BOOM! nominations include:

  • Best Film Editing – Andrew Weisblum and Myron I. Kerstein

tick, tick…BOOM! marks the directorial debut for Grammy Award winner Lin-Manuel Miranda. Written for the stage by Jonathan Larson originally as a rock monologue and penned for the screen by Steven Levenson, tick, tick…BOOM! tells the story of Jon (Andrew Garfield), a young theater composer in New York City. Jon, much like many others in the big city, dreams of writing the next great American musical. Days before he’s due to showcase his work in a performance that could launch his career or destroy it, Jon is feeling the pressure from everywhere, especially those close to him. With the clock ticking, Jon is at a crossroads and must figure out what he, like all of us, must do with the time given to him.

The fifth annual HCA Film Awards will take place at 4 p.m. PT on January 8, 2022 from the Avalon Hollywood.
