A relatively new critics' group on the scene, the Georgia Film Critics Association has nevertheless built up a fair share of clout for itself since its 2011 inception. This year, they've honoured Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood with nine nominations for its eighth annual awards, with Little Women right behind with eight. This is a solid slate overall, fairly well reflecting the general consensus among the critics this year.
Award winners will be announced a week today, on the 10th of January.
