Casey Affleck, LA LA LAND Among Winners of New York Film Critics Circle Awards; Full List
By: Caryn Robbins Dec. 01, 2016
This morning, The New York Film Critics Circle is announcing the winners of their 2016 Aeards. Founded in 1935, the Circle's membership includes critics from daily newspapers, weekly newspapers, magazines, and qualifying online general-interest publications. Every year in December the organization meets in New York to vote on awards for the previous calendar year's films.
Among the categories: best picture, director, screenplay, actor, actress, supporting actor, supporting actress, cinematography, animated film, and best first feature. Special standalone awards are also given to individuals and organizations that have made substantial contributions to THE ART OF cinema, including producers, directors, actors, writers, critics, historians, film restorers, and service organizations. The Circle's awards are often viewed as harbingers of the Oscar nominations, which are announced each February. The Circle's awards are also viewed, perhaps more accurately, as a principled alternative to the Oscars, honoring aesthetic merit in a forum that is immune to commercial and political pressures. Below is a list of winners announced thus far:Best Picture
