“Birdman” was named best picture, and the theater-world satire’s star Michael Keaton was named best actor in this year’s Florida Film Critics Circle Awards.
Richard Linklater’s innovative “Boyhood,” 12 years in the making, also took top honors, winning for best director and supporting actress (Patricia Arquette).
Wes Anderson’s quirky, gorgeously composed “The Grand Budapest Hotel” grabbed the most FFCC honors, with awards for best original screenplay, best ensemble, and best art direction/production design.
