Sono stati assegnati i premi indetti dal Los Angeles Film Critics Association, l’associazione dei critici della città degli angeli ai migliori film dell’anno: A sorpresa spicca il nome di Parasite.

Trionfatrice allo scorso Festival di Cannes, la pellicola diretta da Bong Joon-Ho ha portato a casa il premio principale indetto dal LAFCA, divenendo difatto uno dei film favoriti per una nomination agli Oscar 2020. Non è la prima volta che un film straniero porta a casa il premio principale ai LAFCA, in precedenza era capitato con Roma e Amour, entrambi nominati poi agli Oscar.

Tra i film snobbati dalla critica di Los Angeles spicca The Irishman, il film Netflix diretto da Martin Scorsese, e dato tra i favoriti per la corsa agli Oscar 2020.
