Got to hand it to the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. They've managed to toe the line, honouring the same three titles that keep cropping up so far this awards season - La La Land, Manchester by the Sea and Moonlight - but with the right choices in the right places. But they've also found plenty of space, with thanks surely due to their practice of announcing runners-up alongside award winners, for welcome surprises, including a number of selections currently unique to this group. Smart choices, LAFCA, and the best critics' group awards slate of the year to date.
