The New York Film Critics Circle is meeting on Tuesday in New York City to vote for the best film achievements of 2025. TheWrap will update the list of winners as they are announced.
The first award went to Carson Lund’s loose-limbed baseball drama “Eephus,” which won in the Best First Film category. Kleber Mendonca Filho’s “The Secret Agent” was named Best International Film.
The organization consists of 47 film critics for New York-based newspapers, magazines and online publications. It is the oldest critics group in the country and has been announcing its picks for the year’s best films since 1935.
Over the 90 years of its existence, the NYFCC’s choice for best film has matched the Oscar winner for Best Picture 31 times, though they’ve done so only four times in this century. The two groups haven’t agreed since “The Artist” in 2012.
Last year, “The Brutalist” was named best film by the NYFCC. Four of the group’s winners went on to take Oscars: Kieran Culkin (“A Real Pain”) for supporting actor, Sean Baker (“Anora”) for original screenplay, “Flow” for animated feature and “No Other Land” for documentary.
