As the critics' awards draw to a slow close this season, they're not exactly finding any new tales to tell with their choices. The Latino Entertainment Journalists Association has rung in with its choices for the best in film for 2022, with a very familiar movie atop their list. Everything Everywhere All at Once wins a whopping 10 prizes from LEJA, including Best Picture, Director, and three individual acting awards. With such a dominant performance from EEAAO, it's a wonder any other titles found space to pick up multiple prizes themselves, but three managed it: Top Gun: Maverick with three to its name, and both Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio with two apiece. Check out the nominations for LEJA's 2022 awards here, and the winners below.
