Randolph also won a Golden Globe, a Critics Choice Award, and a BAFTA award for her role in “The Holdovers.” “The Holdovers” tells the story of a morose prep school teacher stuck on campus over the holidays, along with a gifted but rebellious student and the head cook, who is consumed with grief over the loss of her only child.
