"There has never been a better time to honor Black Cinema than this year," says BFCA President Joey Berlin, who is co-producing the event with BFCA Member and KTLA Morning News Anchor and Entertainment Reporter Sam Rubin. "The event will honor achievements both in front of and behind the camera from films such as '42,' 'Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom,' '12 Years A Slave,' 'Lee Daniels' The Butler,' 'Fruitvale Station,' 'The Best Man Holiday' and many more."

n response to the unprecedented and historic flood of acclaimed films this year, the Broadcast Film Critics Association (BFCA) has partnered with the House of Blues to produce a star-studded event, celebrating this year in black cinema. The evening will include a special performance by Darlene Love, Merry Clayton, Lisa Fischer and Judith Hill from the critically-acclaimed documentary '20 Feet From Stardom.' The event will also incorporate remarks given from prominent members of the black community.

 

BFCA member Shawn Edwards, a film critic at Fox 4 Kansas City and the founder of the website "I Love Black Movies," conceived the original idea for the event. This year more than 40 notable films and documentaries have opened, primarily written, directed and/or produced by black men and women, along with so many others featuring notable lead and supporting performances by black actors and actresses.
