Another premiere on my blog this year is Critics’ Choice Movie Awards, an important event in the world of cinema today. The ceremony took place on January 16’th this year, so this list with the nominees and winners is here just for the record, as well with the full show’s youtube video at the end of the post. The Critics’ Choice Movie Awards was formerly known as the Broadcast Film Critics Association Award, and the ceremony has been organized annually by the Broadcast Film Critics Association (BFCA) to honor the finest in cinematic achievement. This year, we celebrate the 19’th. I have borrowed the list from Entertainment Weekly.
