As a member of the Online Film Critics Society it is my duty and pleasure to vote in the OFCS Awards to honor the greatest achievements in the movies.  This year’s winners probably won’t surprise anyone, and all are deserving of such high recognition.  However, I think the only winner I voted for was Hailee Steinfeld for “True Grit.”  To find out who else I thought shined at the movies 2010 be sure to look out for my Top Movies of 2010 list.

“The Social Network,” the dramatized examination of the personalities and incidents behind the launch of the Facebook social media movement, was named Best Picture in the 14th annual Online Film Critics Society Awards. The film also won in the categories of Best Director (David Fincher) and Best Adapted Screenplay (Aaron Sorkin).
