Black Panther Wins Big With AAFCA
Every year, the African-American Film Critics Association can be relied upon to achieve the dual feat of honouring black-centric cinema whilst ensuring that their year-end awards don't lose sight of the best cinema of their respective years. Kinda helps that black filmmakers are consistently turning out some of the best movies around, and 2018 isn't just no exception - it's a banner year! Multiple wins for BlacKkKlansman, The Hate U Give, If Beale Street Could Talk and the AAFCA's Best Film winner Black Panther make for an exceptionally good slate of awards winners for the year. Take a look!
