Beale Street Is The Big Winner With Greater Western New York Critics
I had hesitated to post results of the Greater Western New York Film Critics Association's inaugural voting, given that an initial glance at their membership brought up a mere three names. But a second glance shows a few more, and certainly enough to legitimize the association as a critics group like any other. And they've made some fine choices in their first ever round of voting, choosing If Beale Street Could Talk as their Best Picture of 2018, bestowing upon it four further awards, while Roma wins four in total. All the nominees and winners in full below:
