It was a pleasure to honor Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out), Hong Chau (Downsizing), John Boyega (Detroit), Kumail Nanjiani (The Big Sick), Mary J. Blige (Mudbound), and Timothée Chalamet (Call Me by Your Name) at last night’s event! pic.twitter.com/jheAOhsSUy
Here's the full video of their conversation on stage at the festival:
John had this to say about his fellow nominee, Daniel:
A few years ago I waited at the stage door to meet Daniel after his phenomenal performance and he was kind enough to speak to me giving me much needed wisdom for the future. Cut to 2018 and we’re both Being honoured on the same night Congrats king 🙌🏾 pic.twitter.com/5SG0tAFm0C

Sunday night, Saoirse Ronan was presented with the Santa Barbara award, which is apparently a big deal.

After being introduced by Timothée Chalamet, she sat down and was interviewed one on one about her work. Since they chopped up the interview into a bunch of clips, here is a clip concerning Lady Bird.
She also says she's taking a break after awards season:

Do you need a break after awards season, too?
