The Power of the Dog came out on top at the 2022 Music City Film Critics’ Association (MCFCA) Film Awards with four awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Screenplay. Dune comes away with the second-most awards with three, including Best Score, Best Sound, and Best Production Design.
Each year the MCFCA gives out The Jim Ridley Award, a special award named after one of Nashville’s most beloved film critics, who died at age 50 in 2016. It is given to the film or the person that best represents Nashville and Tennessee. This year’s recipient is Old Henry.
“Once again the Music City Film Critics have honored a unique group of films and performances that showcase the unique quality presented throughout 2021,” Vice President Micheal Compton added.
“Jim Ridley was always one of Nashville’s biggest champions when it came to spotlighting local films made by local artists, and the MCFCA strongly felt that Old Henry honors the spirit of exactly who and what this important award is about,” said Cory Woodroof, MCFCA board member.
