Filipina actress Dolly De Leon was once again recognized for her outstanding role in Ruben Östlund's highly-acclaimed film "Triangle of Sadness."
Dolly took home the Best Female in a Supporting Actress at the Swedish Film Institute’s 2023 Guldbaggen Awards held on Tuesday, January 24.
Pauline Hansson, the film's casting director, received the award on behalf of the 53-year-old actress.
Hansson also read the short acceptance speech sent by Dolly.
"In the industry where Filipinos like me are hardly represented, it was such an honor. Thank you to our producers for making my best ever female experience in 'Triangle of Sadness'," Dolly said.
"Thank you to our writer and director for changing my life, who has traveled as much as I have in this world where diversity and inclusion are still the things we have to work hard to achieve. Most of all, thank you to the great nation of Sweden for shaping Ruben and his wicked sense of humor," she added.
Meanwhile, Dolly was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in the 2023 British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA).
The nominees for BAFTA 2023 were unveiled last January 19.
She is the first Filipina to be nominated in the prestigious international award show.
The awarding ceremony is slated on February 20.
