\nIf you’ve been reading entertainment news then you already know: Yesterday, all the members of the NYFCC met up at Lincoln Center to vote on this year’s awards. It was so good to see people – friends I rarely get to see – Keith, Dana, Stephanie, Tomris – and it was a long day, as voting sometimes is (although nothing was longer than our Covid vote via Zoom). I am very pleased with our award winners and very much look forward to celebrating all of them – and WITH them – at our awards ceremony on January 4th. Proud of our list. There are some surprises. I’m proud when our list doesn’t look like every other list out there. It speaks well of our group, I think. I also love the Special Awards we chose, one of which is close to my heart. (Members come with suggestions, and then we vote.) Here are our winners:<\/p>\n
Best Picture<\/strong> Best Director<\/strong> Best Screenplay<\/strong> Best Actress<\/strong> Best Actor<\/strong> Best Supporting Actress<\/strong> Best Supporting Actor<\/strong> Best Cinematographer<\/strong> Best Animated Film<\/strong> Best Non-Fiction Film (Documentary)<\/strong> Best International Film<\/strong> Best First Film<\/strong> — Jake Perlin, curator, distributor and publisher in recognition of his indispensable contributions to film culture.<\/p>\n — dGenerate Films<\/a> for its invaluable work bringing independent films to China.<\/p>\n — Jafar Panahi, for \u201cdogged bravery as an artist, and for the humanity and beauty of a body of work created under the most oppressive circumstances.<\/p>\n We also give two student scholarships, one to an undergraduate student, one to a grad student. There’s a cash prize as well as an invite to the dinner. I was on the committee that chose these two, so congratulations to both. You’re fine writers and thinkers!<\/p>\n Undergraduate, Nico Pedrero-Setzer If you’ve been reading entertainment news then you already know: Yesterday, all the members of the NYFCC met up at Lincoln Center to vote on this year’s awards.
