The Critics' Choice
Movie Awards are bestowed annually by the BFCA to honor the finest in cinematic
achievement. The BFCA is the largest film critics organization in the U.S. and
Canada, representing more than 270 television, radio and online critics. BFCA
members are the primary source of information for today's film-going public. Eligible
films were released in 2012. The accounting firm of CMM, LLP tallied the
written ballots.
Since its inception in
1995, the Critics' Choice Movie Awards has been a star-studded bellwether event
of the movie awards season. Historically, the Critics' Choice Movie Awards are
the most accurate predictor of the Academy Award nominations. Among the
attendees at last year's show were George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Meryl Streep,
Leonardo DiCaprio, Charlize Theron, Bob Dylan, Martin Scorsese and Spielberg.
Final ballots for the 18th
annual Critics' Choice Movie Awards will be sent to BFCA members on Jan. 7,
2013, with a deadline for returning final ballots on Jan. 8, 2013.
