The New York Film Critics Circle (NYFCC) is an American
film critic organization founded in 1935 by Wanda Hale from the
New York ''Daily News''. Its membership includes over 30 film critics from
New York-based daily and weekly newspapers, magazines, and online publications.
In December of each year, the organization meets to vote on the New York Film Critics Circle Awards, given annually to honor excellence in cinema worldwide of the calendar year. The NYFCC also gives special stand-alone awards to individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to the art of cinema, including writers, directors, producers, film critics, film restorers, historians and service organizations.
