To the previous year he was called Ensors uitgereikt for ‘beste actor film’ in ‘beste actor film’, and also by televisiereeksen manen and vrouwen in afzonderlijke categorieën bekroond.
That will be done soon, because gender-neutral prices are given. It is said by the Ensors that it was the ‘best performance in a film’ (for film and tv apart) and the ‘best performance in a special role’ (idem). Opgeteld were he zo twintig geminierden. En de verhouding zat “perfect”, met tien manen en tien vrouwen.
Thanks to the mooie verdeling eindigden de actrices real met lege handen: all acteerprijzen went to men. This suffers tot he what teleurgestelde reacties, en daar heft de organisatie achter de ensors also begrip voor. “I was also able to telegram with the same number of people, as is the democratic establishment of the 1,500 members of the Ensor Academie,” said Wim Vanseveren bij Het Laatste Nieuws.
Vanseveren speaks over “een wake-upcall”. Over two weeks follows an evaluation. Vanseveren benadrukt wel dat er wel degelijk stappen gezet zijn op het vlak van diversiteit. “Hadden ze ons three years gegeden gezegd dat de twee most important acteerprijzen vandaag be won by mensen met een other culturele achtergrond, so nobody dat geloofd liften. We now have quite a few steps due to diversity. I have confidence in the fact that he in the toekomst also has a gezond even weight to come in the gender-neutral prices.”
