"Zsazsa Zaturnnah Ze Moveeh" won a very delightfully named award from an international gay and lesbian film festival.
One of the four entries na inilaban ng Regal in the 32nd Metro Manila Film Festival noong 2006 (the other three being Shake, Rattle & Roll 8, Mano Po 5 Gua Ai Di, and Super Noypi), delayed ang naging recognition for the movie adaptation of the Carlo Vergara comic characters in terms of awards.
Wala itong napanalunan sa MMFF 2006 awards night but it got two awards sa EnPress Golden Screen Awards for Best Screenplay Adaptation and Musical Score. It was also the most nominated mainstream movie in the prestigious Manunuri Ng Pelikulang Pilipino (Urian) of that year with eight nominations and two wins for Best Actor for Rustom Padilla and Best Music.
Recently, inilaban ng Regal Films ang Zsazsa Zaturnnah ze Moveeh sa Calgary's Tenth International Gay and Lesbian Awards held last May 27 to June 5 sa Canada featuring mostly gay themed movies from Canada but also invited several entries from other countries.
Ang Zsazsa ang kaisa-isang entry ng Pilipinas and it was screened sa The Plaza Theater last May 30.
The Calgary festival awards were divided into three categories, audience awards (Courtney Sebree Aarbo Audience Award), jury awards (Riley Metzger Jury Award) and special awards (Riley Metzger Honorable Mentions).
Lima ang categories sa special awards, Queer Voice Award na pinanalunan ng Want from Canada; Poetic Image award, won again by a Canadian entry entitled Body Image and two Canadian-specific awards, Best Canadian Feature (Finn's Girl) and Best Canadian Short (No Bikini).
The fifth is basically the best international picture at delightfully funny ang titulo ng award, Best Super-Awesome-Uber-Whack-Mega-Gaylord-Magic-Surprise Film. Ito ang napanalunan ng Zsazsa Zaturnnah Ze Moveeh.
