The 23-year-old Irish star dedicated her award to "the two women who mean so much to me," referencing her mother and 'Lady Bird' writer and director Greta Gerwig. It brings Saoirse one step closer to an Oscar, having racked up two nominations already for 'Atonement' and 'Brooklyn'. At the awards at New York City's Cipriani Wall Street, she was up against Melanie Lynskey for 'I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore', Haley Lu Richardson for 'Columbus', Margot Robbie for 'I, Tonya', and Lois Smith for 'Marjorie Prime'.
