The Boston Society Of Film Critics split most of their honors between “The Banshees of Inisherin,” which won Best English Language Film and a pair of acting awards, and “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” which won the remaining acting awards. “After Yang” received a Best Adapted Screenplay award for the first time this season, while Eliot Rockett won his first Best Cinematography award for “Pearl” and “X.” However, “Jackass Forever” tying for the Best Ensemble had to be the biggest surprise.
