The Gotham Awards, presented by the Independent Filmmaker Project and determined by small committees of journalists, seek to honor the year's best indie films and filmmakers. The Hollywood Reporter caught up with four indie stalwarts who are receiving award tributes at this year's ceremony. Fox Filmed Entertainment co-chairman and CEO Tom Rothman, who is receiving the Industry Tribute, began his film career in New York as a producer, went on to head Samuel Goldwyn during the heyday of independent film and founded Fox Searchlight in 1994. This year's Career Tribute recipients are actor Gary Oldman, who has appeared in more than 40 films and stars in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy; A Dangerous Method writer-director David Cronenberg; and Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron, who stars as a troubled author in Jason Reitman's Young Adult.
