Among the predictable winners were Julie Christie as best actress in a drama for her performance as a woman suffering from Alzheimer&#8217;s disease in Sarah Polley&#8217;s Away from Her (right, with Gordon Pinsent); Daniel Day-Lewis as best actor in a drama for his star turn as a greedy oil baron in Paul Thomas Anderson&#8217;s widely praised There Will Be Blood; and Johnny Depp as best actor in a comedy or musical for his singing serial-killing barber in Sweeney Todd. (Depp was the only American actor to win in the feature-film categories.)

		<description><![CDATA[J. Hoberman, discussing the results of a &#34;best of the year&#34; poll of 56 American critics, in the Village Voice:
&#34;Why shouldn&#8217;t we be preoccupied with homicidal sociopaths? America&#8217;s been at war for the past four and a half years &#8212; with, to cite the top-polling documentary, No End in Sight (#29). War makes you wonder what exactly defines murder and who is enabled to commit it. The morally ambiguous mode known as film noir was born during World War II and, as Jonathan Rosenbaum observed at the time, the national obsession with the cannibal genius Hannibal Lecter coincided with our first Iraq adventure, Operation Desert Storm. Where do these current killers come from? It&#8217;s suggestive that both There Will Be [...]]]></description>

Via indieWIRE &#8212; &#34;The Critics Speak: Best, Worst, the Auteurs and the Underrated.&#34; Below are a couple of sample quotes: 
&#34;More people in our world will see Juno than 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days. More will see 300 than Offside. More will see Saw IV than There Will Be Blood [above]. Yet we fight on, championing those films that really mean something to us. I find this rage against an always dying light both disconcerting and empowering, and I am thankful for filmmakers like Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Paul Thomas Anderson, Jafar Panahi, Sarah Polley, Pedro Costa, Tsai Ming-liang, the Coens, Todd Haynes, and all of the others who consistently reminded me of why I do what I do and [...]]]></description>
