Washington DC Film Critics Winners – Boyhood, Gillian Flynn for Gone Girl

So excited to see that Gillian Flynn finally won something. The only female writer in the Oscar race has been shunned by the critics (natch) except this group. Good on you, WAFCA, for acknowledging Flynn’s great script and one of the biggest successes of 2014.
