What a breath of fresh of air. For once, the rest of the industry is on point with the Online Association of Female Film Critics so much so that there’s nothing that hasn’t already gotten love. “Promising Young Woman” did take the top prize over “Nomadland,” but Chloé Zhao was still able to take Best Director. Don’t worry, however, because Emerald Fennell was still honored for Best Breakthrough Filmmaker. “Never Rarely Sometimes Always” received a little more love than it had so far this season, tying with “Promising Young Woman” for Best Original Screenplay as well as Sidney Flanigan winning Breakthrough Performance and the film winning the Rosie Award.
