Online Film Critics Society (OFCS) Awards – winners


The Online Film Critics Society (OFCS) has announced the winners for the 16th annual OFCS Awards.

Ben Affleck's Argo came out on top with the win for Best Picture. It also captured Best Adapted Screenplay. The film is based on the story of a CIA operative who helped American hostages hiding with the Canadian Ambassador escape from Iran in 1980.

Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master also captured two awards. Anderson won Best Director, while Philip Seymour Hoffman won Best Supporting Actor. It had led the nominations.

ParaNorman won Best Animated Feature and Jafar Panahi's This Is Not a Film won Best Documentary. Along with Mojtaba Mirtahmasb, This Is Not a Film director Jafar Panahi recorded a documentary about his creative processes while under political arrest in Iran, forbidden from making motion pictures. The Online Film Critics Society gave one of its three special awards to the the pair for their act of protest against the Iranian government.

The second award was given to legendary composer Ennio Morricone for his amazing and celebrated career in films. The final special award was given to the "For the Love of Film" program and Fandor in conjunction with the National Preservation Foundation for their work this year to raise money for an exhibition of the restoration of one of Alfred Hitchcock’s oldest works, The White Shadow.
