AFI organizers just e-mailed me a press release to remind me that each year, the AFI AWARDS honor excellence in the moving image arts within the context of a year in review.
"This is the next chapter in AFI's national mandate - specifically - the creation of an annual almanac that records and preserves the evolution of the moving image arts in the 21st century. "
Commencing January 12th thru January 19th, a handful of this year's "best in review" will screen at both the Arclight in Hollywood and Sherman Oaks Galleria respectively.
