Boston Society Of Film Critics Go For Phantom Thread

Even though Phantom Thread is a late breaker in this year’s awards season, it managed to pick up major steam as the Boston Society Of Film Critics awarded it Best Picture, Best Director for Paul Thomas Anderson, and Best Score. Meanwhile, Willem Dafoe continues to steamroll his way through the Supporting Actor category as he picked up yet another prize and Laurie Metcalf remains the frontrunner in Best Supporting Actress.
