‘Licorice Pizza’ and ‘The Power of the Dog’ to Duke it Out For Critics Awards

November 16, 2021 Jordan Ruimy

With “Licorice Pizza,” and “Being the Ricardos” now having been officially shown to critics in NYC and LA, This is how the remaining contenders will be unveiled in the next few weeks:

Don’t Look Up, November 17th
West Side Story, November 29th
Nightmare Alley, December 1st

Notice how “Nightmare Alley” is being shown just a day before the New York Film Critics Circle votes on their awards. Although, I don’t think that film will be a factor with NYC critics. It does seem as though Jane Campion’s “The Power of the Dog” and Paul Thomas Anderson’s “Licorice Pizza” will be duking it out for the title of most critically-acclaimed movie of 2021. I couldn’t be happier since they are two of the richest and most rewarding films you will see this year.

A reliable aggregator to determine what critics have favoured this year is Metacritic. Right now there are 6 films that will likely be featured heavily in critics groups votethink.

Licorice Pizza 95
Power of the Dog 90
Tragedy of Macbeth 89
The Souvenir Part II 89
Passing 85

These could also have some fans amongst critics circles:

Flee 88
The Lost Daughter 88
Memoria 89
Drive My Car 89
Parallel Mothers 86
The Green Knight 85
In the Heights 84
Pig 82
Mass 81
Red Rocket 78
Belfast 77
Spencer 76
CODA 75
Dune 74
Titane 74
