NEW YORK FILM CRITICS CIRCLE AND TFF #9 FILMS
New York critics tapped three TFF #49 films and a TFF #48 film with a total of five awards on Friday with Todd Field's TAR leading the charge winning awards for Best Feature and Best Actress for Cate Blanchett's searing performance. Charlotte Wells' Aftersun was lauded for Best First Feature. The other TFF #49 recognition was for Laura Poitras' documentary on the life and work of photographer and activist nan Goldin: All the Beauty and the Bloodshed.
TFF #48's Marcel the Shell with Shoes On was named the year's Best Animated Feature. Congrats to Dean Fleischer Camp and Jenny Slate and the whole Marcel crew. Regular readers know that Marcel is on of my passions this awards season.
In other NYFCC news of note, Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin made noise with two wins. One for Best Actor for Colin Farrell and the other for McDonagh's Screenplay.
