TAGGED AS: Academy Awards, Awards, golden globes, New York Film Critics, NYFCC, Oscars, Top Movies 2023
The New York Film Critics Circle announced the winners of their 2023 awards this morning on Twitter, and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon took the top prize, with star Lily Gladstone winning Best Actress. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer also won two prizes, including Best Director. Todd Haynes’ May December also received dual honors, for its screenplay and Best Supporting Actor Charles Melton, who beat the likes of Robert De Niro and Robert Downey Jr. in the process, further cementing his Oscar contender status.
The NYFCC Awards are chosen by a group of critics from daily newspapers, weekly newspapers, magazines, and qualifying online general-interest publications. Last year, Tár won Best Film, while S. S. Rajamouli was voted Best Director for RRR.
