The NY Film Critics Circle a group comprised of about 30 NY area critics and writers used twitter yesterday to announce their annual winners and not surprisingly women did not figure anywhere on the list except in the acting categories.
Meryl Streep scored her first (of probably many) wins for the Iron Lady and Jessica Chastain won in the supporting category for her great body of work this year including The Help, Take Shelter and The Tree of Life. This is Meryl Streep’s fourth win from this critics body. She previously won for Sophie’s Choice, A Cry in the Dark and Julie & Julia.
