OFCS Chooses 'Almost Famous'


HOLLYWOOD - Director Cameron Crowe's rock pic "Almost Famous" was named the year's best movie by the Online Film Critics Society on Tuesday.

The film, based on Crowe's experiences as a teen reporter for Rolling Stone, also garnered awards for Kate Hudson (supporting actress), Philip Seymour Hoffman (supporting actor), ensemble acting and screenplay from the 103-member OFCS.

Hoffman tied with "Traffic's" Benicio Del Toro for supporting actor, while "Almost Famous" tied with "State and Main" for ensemble acting.

Tom Hanks was named best actor for "Cast Away" and Ellen Burstyn was named best actress for "Requiem for a Dream."

In a surprise, the directing award went to "Requiem for a Dream's" Darren Aronofsky. Most of the critics awards thus far have gone to Steven Soderbergh for "Traffic" and "Erin Brockovich."

Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" earned kudos for foreign language film and cinematography.
