Launched in 2004, WFCC became the first women critics&#8217; organization in the United States, in the belief that women\u2019s perspectives and voices in film criticism need to be recognized fully. WFCC also prides itself on being the most culturally and racially diverse critics group in the country by far, and best reflecting the diversity of movie audiences.<\/p>\n<p>The complete list of winners and nominees honored by the WFCC in 2018 is listed below:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Movie About Women<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Portrait of a Lady on Fire&#8217; (dir.
