Los Angeles Film Critics Honor 'Spotlight,' 'Mad Max: Fury Road'

The Los Angeles Film Critics Association has handed out its annual honors, and the group's top prizes went to both expected recipients ("Spotlight") and wild card flicks ("Mad Max: Fury Road").

"Spotlight" nabbed the top prize, taking home Best Film, in addition to Best Screenplay. But "Max" is proving it's a force to be reckoned with, earning runner-up to Best Film, as well as trophies for Best Director (George Miller), Best Cinematography, and Best Production Design.

Though critically beloved and commercially successful, the high-octane "Max" hadn't been considered a serious awards season contender. But its recent announcement as Best Film of 2015 by the National Board of Review and strong showing with the L.A. critics could indicate a push toward Academy Award nominations come January.

The full list of winners (and runners up) is below.
