“Although cinemas were closed for most of the year, 2020 was in many ways a groundbreaking year for film,” said Ashley Menzel, co-chair, on the variety of nominees. “We look forward to seeing more inclusivity on screen, hopefully not just in award-winning films, but in films in general.”
The fourth annual ceremony was broadcast tonight on the HCA Facebook page and YouTube channel. The organization’s mission since its inception in 2016 has been to lift underrepresented voices in the industry.
“The films nominated by members of the Hollywood Critics Association were one of the most diverse and inclusive stories we’ve seen on screen in some time,” Menzel noted. “Our mission has always been to highlight all the votes, and I believe that tonight reflects in our winners.”
