The New York Film Critics Circle released their best-of list yesterday, and director Sarah Polley was the sole female awardee in a non-acting category.
Polley’s meta-memoir Stories We Tell was the NYFCC’s pick for Best Non-Fiction Film. Awards frontrunner Cate Blanchett (Blue Jasmine) was named Best Actress, while last year’s Best Actress Oscar winner, Jennifer Lawrence, received a Best Supporting honor this time around for American Hustle. Lawrence, the youngest member of Hustle’s core cast, was the only actor from the film to win an award.
