Boston Online Film Critics Association Names SNOWPIERCER Top Film of the Year
The Boston Online Film Critics Association has selected SNOWPIERCER as the top film of the year.
Also announced at the ceremony which took place yesterday, Dec. 6, was best director, Alejandro G Inarritu of Birdman. Last year's top film winner, 12 Years a Slave, went on to win the Academy Award for Best Picture.
Best actor went to Brendan Gleeson (Calvary), with Marion Cotillard (Two Days, One Night) winning best actress.
Edward Norton won best supporting actor for Birdman, Tilda Swinton won best supporting actress for SNOWPIERCER, and John Michael McDonagh won best screenplay for Calvary.
Best documentary went to Life Itself, and THE LEGO MOVIE won for best animated film.
SNOWPIERCER takes place in the midst of a second Ice Age, when THE REMAINING inhabitants of Earth are packed together aboard the Snowpiercer, a supertrain that will continuously circle the globe until the planet is once again habitable. On the train-separated into classes, with the "unwashed masses" relegated to the intolerable caboose while the one-percenters bask in luxury-reluctant hero Curtis (Chris Evans) leads a rebellious charge to the ship's engine room. Based on the French graphic novel Le Transperceneige, the film co-stars Song Kang-ho, John Hurt, Tilda Swinton, Ed Harris, Jamie Bell, and Octavia Spencer. A Radius-TWC release.
