Nominations for 43rd London Critics’ Circle Film Awards - The Banshees of Inisherin and Aftersun
The Banshees of Inisherin and Aftersun

British-Irish director Martin McDonagh’s The Banshees of Inisherin leads the nominations for the 43rd annual London Critics’ Circle Film Awards, with nine nominations, followed closely with eight nominations, by Scottish debut filmmaker Charlotte Wells’ coming-of-age story Aftersun.

Both films scored nominations for Film of the Year, Director of the Year and Screenwriter of the Year, as did Todd Field’s Tár and Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert’s Everything Everywhere All at Once, both of which scored six nominations.

Also among the ten nominees for Film of the Year are a documentary, Laura Poitras’ penetrating Nan Goldin study All the Beauty and the Bloodshed, and two non-English-language titles: Korean auteur Park Chan-wook’s Decision to Leave, which also landed him a Director of the Year nod, and French director Alice Diop’s courtroom drama Saint Omer. Rounding out this highly varied category are Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans, Oliver Hermanus’ lyrical Kurosawa remake Living and Joseph Kosinski’s Top Gun: Maverick.
