For more than two decades, AARP’s Movies for Grownups initiative has championed movies for grownups, by grownups, by advocating for the 50-plus audience and encouraging films and TV shows that resonate with older viewers and fighting against industry ageism. This year, in lieu on an in-person ceremony, the Movies for Grownups Awards winners will be announced exclusively in the pages of the February/March issue of AARP The Magazine and AARP digital platforms.

“Our goal has always been to ignite cultural change in Hollywood through our Movies for Grownups initiative,” says AARP film and TV critic Tim Appelo. “And this year’s bumper crop of masterworks worth a grownup’s time suggests that it’s a happening. AARP’s Movies for Grownups Awards fights industry ageism, and they’re a measure of social change as well as artistic excellence.”
