Breaking the traditional selection of 10 films for the first time, the annual AFI list compiled 11 picks, including “American Sniper,” “Boyhood,” “Foxcatcher,” “The Imitation Game,” “Interstellar,” “Into the Woods,” “Nightcrawler,” “Selma” and “Whiplash.”
“Unbroken,” based on the life of Olympian Louis Zamperini and directed by Angelina Jolie, earned its first notable awards mention, as well as Disney’s upcoming musical “Into the Woods” and Christopher Nolan’s space fantasy “Interstellar.”
Richard Linklater’s “Boyhood,” filmed over 12 years and following a boy’s coming-of-age tale, was awarded best picture by the Los Angeles Film Critics Association over the weekend and won best film, director and supporting actress at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards last week.
The AFI selections, made by a jury of AFI members, scholars, TV and film artists and critics, come ahead of the Screen Actors Guild and Golden Globe nominations this week.
