E’ Nomadland di Chloé Zhao il miglior film dell’anno per l’Online Film Critics Society.
Una messe di premi sul film interpretato da Frances McDormand, molto, molto al di là dei suoi effettivi valori: regia, attrice, sceneggiatura, fotografia e persino montaggio (!).
Delroy Lindo miglior attore protagonista per Da 5 Bloods.
Curiosa la scelta di Minari, un film americano, come miglior film internazionale.
Forse la cosa più interessante è la top ten dei dieci film più votati. Di seguito vincitori e link alle nostre recensioni:
