\n\tClose to four hours after closing the doors to vote, the New York Film Critics Circle<\/a> gave their top prize, Best Film to Warner Bros\u2019 One Battle After Another<\/a> from director Paul Thomas Anderson. <\/p>\n

\n\tVoting began around 9:16AM EST in what is historically a lengthy voting huddle for the 50 member-plus critics org; the group unveiling winners as they\u2019re selected. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe oldest critics group in the U.S. is good about being a bellwether for Oscar nominees, and sometimes winners, however, they haven\u2019t been in sync with the Academy on Best Picture since 2011\u2019s The Artist. <\/p>\n

\n\tLast year\u2019s 50-plus critics group bestowed Best Picture to Brady Corbet\u2019s The Brutalist. The movie also won Best Actor for Adrien Brody. Of the NYFCC winners that Oscars saw eye to eye with were Brody for Best Actor, Kieran Culkin for Best Supporting Actor for Searchlight\u2019s Real Pain, Best Screenplay for Anora, Best Animated Feature Film for Flow, and Best Documentary for No Other Land. <\/p>\n

\n\tBest Director went to Iranian director\u00a0Jafar Panahi<\/a>\u00a0for his Cannes Palme d\u2019Or winning, It Was Just an Accident. The filmmaker was sentenced to one year in prison and a two-year travel ban in absentia by the Branch 26 of the Tehran Islamic Revolutionary Court. This is all going down while Panahi is on the awards season trailer for France\u2019s International Film Oscar submission. Last night the director won Best Screenplay at The Gothams, dedicating the award to filmmakers \u201cdeprived of the right see and be seen.\u201d <\/a>Panahi was also banned from membership of political and social groups due to \u201cpropaganda activities against the system.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFirst award announced at 10:25 AM EST was First Film for Carson Lund\u2019s Eephus about a grown men\u2019s recreational baseball game which stretches to extra innings on their beloved field\u2019s final day before demolition. The movie played Cannes Directors Fortnight in 2024. Kleber Mendon\u00e7a Filho\u2019s The Secret Agent, which won Best Director, Best Actor (Wagner Moura), the FIPRESCI Prize, and AFCAE prize at Cannes, was named Best International Film. <\/p>\n
