Winslet Reaps Reader Reward
There's no stopping Kate Winslet who has scooped another award for her movie performances in both The Reader and Revolutionary Road.
The Oscar-nominated star won Actress of the Year for her performances in The Reader and Revolutionary Road at the London Film Critics' Circle Awards, adding to the two Golden Globes she took last month
Top film, Slumdog Millionaire also continued its awards ceremony success. Danny Boyle scooped British Director of the Year and Attenborough British Film of the Year for Slumdog, which has received 10 Oscar nominations and is also a high-profile Bafta nominee, receiving 11 nods.
The film also won the Screenwriter of the Year prize for Simon Beaufoy, but 18-year-old star Dev Patel was beaten to the Best Actor award by Mickey Rourke for The Wrestler.
Dev also missed out on the new NSPCC Young British Performance award to 16-year-old Thomas Turgoose, who starred in Somers Town and Eden Lake.
The London Critics' Circle Awards are judged by more than 100 newspaper and magazine film critics, and raise money for the NSPCC.
Meanwhile, Michael Fassbender was awarded British Actor of the Year for his portrayal of IRA prisoner and MP Bobby Sands in Hunger, and Kristin Scott-Thomas won British Actress of the Year for her bilingual performance in I've Loved You So Long.
