Atlanta Film Critics Circle Announces 2023 Awards Winners

This morning, the Atlanta Film Critics Circle (or AFCC) gave out their awards for 2023. Leading the way was Christopher Nolan‘s Oppenheimer. The film took the top prize, along with Best Actor for Cillian Murphy, Best Supporting Actor for Robert Downey Jr. (in a tie with Ryan Gosling for Barbie), Best Director for Nolan, and more.
