Nominations have been announced for the 2022 Columbus Film Critics Association awards. Formerly known as the Central Ohio Film Critics Association, the group has made a welcome change this year in combining its two leading acting categories into one genderless category, and the same for supporting actors. Leading the field is The Banshees of Inisherin with a fantastic haul of 12 nominations, with Everything Everywhere All at Once and The Fabelmans also faring well, notching up 10 and 9 nods apiece. Winners will be announced on 5 January. All the details below.
