Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

Winners of the Hugo Award for best dramatic presentation. Awards given in one year are for works released during the previous calendar year. Winning titles are listed first, with other nominees listed below. Note that in 2003 the category was split into "long form" and "short form" awards, for presentations longer and shorter than 90 minutes, essentially to distinguish between theatrical movies and television episodes. In the case of television presentations, the award is for particular episodes rather than for a program as a whole.
