Remember when the Denver Film Critics Society announced their nominations? They appeared in a curious order that seemed to resemble an order of preference based on initial voting figures. Their award winners might go some way to dispel that notion among some, though not me, even as American Sniper pulls off a big shock to win the group's Best Picture award. That's easily explainable: more members getting a chance to see the film, votes redirected toward it after nomination choices were ruled out. Anyway, it's indicative of the film's enormous popularity among select portions of the movie-watching community. I'll refrain from judgement until I've actually seen the film itself. Here are the Denver Film Critics Society 2014 award winners:
