| Ellar Coltrane in Boyhood |
Richard Linklater's Boyhood has won another awards season victory, this time coming top in the Criticwire end of year poll, where it beat off stiff competition from existential Scottish science fiction film Under The Skin and Wes Anderson romp The Grand Budapest Hotel. Linklater also took Best Director while the film won Best Editing and Best Supporting Actress for Patricia Arquette.
Wes Anderson's film was a strong contender in several categories and won Best Actor for Ralph Fiennes - a rare accolade for a comic performance - as well as Best Screenplay. Under The Skin, which seemed perpetually doomed to be a runner up, too Best Soundtrack, while Birdman, shortlisted in seven categories, won Best Cinematography.
Criticwire runs one of the few truly international polls, with critics contributing from all aroubd the world.
