The Southeastern Film Critics Association has announced its selections for 2018. Following in line with many other critics groups, SEFCA selected ROMA as the Best Film of the year with The Favourite coming in as the runner up. ROMA also took home Best Director and Best Cinematography for Alfonso Cuaron along with Best Foreign-Language Film. Meanwhile The Favourite took home Best Actress for Olivia Colman (who appears to be speeding towards an Oscar win) and Best Ensemble.

Overall, I’m pretty happy with these choices. This was my first year as Vice President of SEFCA (which led to me endlessly quoting the Vice trailer because I am nothing if not obnoxious), but I like the diversity among the selections. While I would take issue with a few here and there, it’s a pretty well-rounded list that I hope drives people out to see some of these movies. Remember, if you’ve got Netflix, you can watch ROMA right now, and you totally should. I don’t care that it’s the middle of the work day.

Check out the full list of selections below.
