AFI to launch awards show
American Film Institute to honor best TV shows, movies of the year
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The American Film Institute, best known for issuing lists such as The 100 Greatest Movies of All Time, announced yesterday it will join the growing ranks of groups holding awards shows on television.
The nonprofit organization will play host to its inaugural film and TV awards show on Jan. 5 on CBS, said AFI director Jean Picker Firstenberg. That means it will air two weeks before the Golden Globes on NBC and less than two months before the Academy Awards on ABC.
AFI will give awards to actors and directors and name the year's
10 best movies. The ceremony also will honor TV programming, including awards for best drama and comedy series.
Noting that AFI's members include filmmakers, critics, historians, show-business executives and others. Firstenberg said of the new show, "It's not a peer award. It's not a craft award. It's not a critics' award and it's not a historians' award. But all of these people who have dedicated their life to this art form will be making the decisions about the best films of the year."
Bruce Davis, executive director of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, questioned whether there were already too many award shows.
"I think (AFI) fills a crying need," Davis said sardonically.
"In past years there have been three-day stretches in January when no one hosted a movie
awards show and I think this fills that gap nicely."
Year-end movie ceremonies include the Golden Globes, the Screen Actors Guild Awards and the Independent Spirit Awards as well as others put on by the Directors Guild of America, the Writers Guild of America, the Producers Guild of America and the National Board of Review.
AFI officials said their event wasn't meant to infringe on others.
"Each of these shows stands on its own." Firstenberg said.
Two 13-member committees one for film and one for television will determine AFI's nominations in 19 categories. A jury of 100 AFI experts will decide the winners.
A host has yet to be named for the show.
