Vancouver Film Critics Circle
The Vancouver Film Critics Circle (VFCC) was founded in 2000 by David Spaner and Ian Caddell in order to help promote Canadian films and the British Columbia Film and Television Industry. Its membership currently includes print, radio, on-line and television critics either based in Vancouver or with Vancouver outlets.
The VFCC celebrated its 12th anniversary of giving awards to the year’s best films on January 9, 2012 at the Railway Club. The event is the only among Canadian critics’ groups that presents a full slate of international awards and a full slate of Canadian awards. The VFCC also presents a Best of British Columbia Award and an Achievement Award that goes to an individual or group that has made a significant contribution to the local film and television industry.

Famous quotes containing the words film, critics and/or circle:
“To read a newspaper for the first time is like coming into a film that has been on for an hour. Newspapers are like serials. To understand them you have to take knowledge to them; the knowledge that serves best is the knowledge provided by the newspaper itself.”
—V.S. (Vidiadhar Surajprasad)
“You know what the critics are. If you tell the truth they only say you’re cynical and it does an author no good to get a reputation for cynicism.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
“And year by year our memory fades
From all the circle of the hills.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
