The 5th Annual Hollywood Critics Association Film Awards Winners
Last nite, the Hollywood Critics Association (commonly referred to as the HCA) held its 5th Annual HCA Film Awards at Avalon Hollywood in Los Angeles. The ceremony was live-streamed on YouTube and has since been chopped up into individual clips.
If you're not familiar with the HCA Film Awards, this is where the Hollywood Critics Association awards the best films of the previous year.
So without further ado, here are the winners of the 5th Annual HCA Film Awards! As always, links to films or television shows I've reviewed will be included.
