The New York Film Critics’ Circle announced the winners of their 89th annual awards on Thursday (Nov. 30). These Gotham-based reviewers are the first critics group to weigh in with their picks for the top pic with their West Coast counterparts (LAFCA) due to chime in on Dec 10. The last time that the NYFCC previewed the Best Picture winner at the Academy Awards was in 2012 with “The Artist.”
The members of the NYFCC meet in Manhattan and cast their votes in a complicated system that can result in multiple ballots for each race. Not surprisingly, this can result in a marathon session that lasts all day, with an extended break for lunch.
