Clayton Davis The Chicago Film Critics Association has named Chloé Zhao’s “Nomadland” as this year’s big winner, netting five prizes, including best picture, director, actress (Frances McDormand), adapted screenplay and cinematography.

A new critics group can potentially struggle to separate themselves from the pack. Thankfully, the Hollywood Critics Association (or HCA, for short) does not have that problem. Chairman and founder Scott Menzel (full disclosure, an industry colleague and friend of mine) has managed to do a lot in a very small amount of time.

Among the citations are Sidney Flanigan and Aubrey Plaza, which are inspired choices. Read on for more…

“Mank,” David Fincher’s wondrous ode to old Hollywood and “Citizen Kane” screenwriter Herman Mankiewicz.
