We’re officially in the thick of awards season, folks. The Golden Globes were all handed out this past weekend, with 1917 and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood taking home the two Best Picture awards. First thing Monday morning the Academy Award nominations will be revealed, with the winners set to be crowned in early February. Leading up to the Oscars, the majority of the critics societies and associations throughout the country will be announcing the winners of their circle’s awards, celebrating the best that movies had to offer throughout the last year. The Music City Film Critics Association, comprised of the critics in Nashville, TN, announced the winners of its annual awards on Friday afternoon, and Joker star Joaquin Phoenix landed yet another win for his performance as Arthur Fleck.
Phoenix was named 2019’s Best Actor by the MCFCA, while Lupita Nyong’o was honored as the Best Actress of the year for her performance in Jordan Peele’s Us. Marvel’s hit blockbuster Avengers: Endgame also got some love from Nashville’s voters, winning the award for Best Action Film. All in all, it was 1917 that truly won over the MCFCA members, as it led all movies with five total victories including Best Picture and Best Director.
