PFCS Strikes First

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011 by

The PFCS is a collection of film critics based in Phoenix, AZ. Last year the PFCS was the only critics group to name “The King’s Speech” as Best Picture correctly predicting the Academy Awards.

It only follows that the Phoenix Film Critics Society will be under heavy watch to endorse this year’s best film, and the votes are in! Here is the final PFCS list for film awards in 2011, with “The Artist” winning the vote as Best Picture of 2011 among other awards.
