  • The NYFCC is an organization whose members are NYC-based newspaper and magazine film critics. It was founded in 1935 to be a contrast to the Academy Awards which were felt to be too influenced by studio politics and Hollywood local taste.
  • In 1962 no awards were given at all due to a newspaper strike.
