The 19th Dallas–Fort Worth Film Critics Association Awards honoring the best in film for 2013 were announced on December 16, 2013. These awards "recognizing extraordinary accomplishment in film" are presented annually by the Dallas–Fort Worth Film Critics Association (DFWFCA), based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex region of Texas.[1] The organization, founded in 1990, includes 29 film critics for print, radio, television, and internet publications based in north Texas.[2][3] The Dallas–Fort Worth Film Critics Association began presenting its annual awards list in 1993.[2]
Only one other film, Dallas Buyers Club, earned multiple 2013 honors from the DFWFCA.[7] Set in mid-1980s Dallas, the drama received top honors for Best Actor (Matthew McConaughey) and Best Supporting Actor (Jared Leto).[8] Cate Blanchett was named Best Actress for her title role in Blue Jasmine.[9] The other films earning honors were France's Blue Is the Warmest Colour for Best Foreign Language Film, 20 Feet from Stardom as Best Documentary Film, and Frozen for Best Animated Film.[8]
Along with the 12 "best of" category awards, the group also presented the Russell Smith Award to Fruitvale Station as the "best low-budget or cutting-edge independent film" of the year.[4][10] The award is named in honor of late Dallas Morning News film critic Russell Smith.[5]
