Now in its 20th year, Movies for Grownups is the only major Hollywood awards show that fights ageism in the industry and honors entertainment by and for people over 50 — and this year we added TV shows and stars to the winner's circle (welcome to our world, Catherine O'Hara!). While this year's broadcast is virtual and minus a real red carpet, it's still full of big names and glamour. In the words of Movies for Grownups Career Achievement honoree George Clooney, “It's fun!”
