Laurel Awards
Not to be confused with Laurel Award for Screenwriting Achievement or Laurel Award for TV Writing Achievement.
The Laurel Awards were cinema awards to honor pictures, actors, actresses, directors and composers. This award was created by Motion Picture Exhibitor magazine, and ran from 1957 to 1968, then 1970 and 1971.
