Society of Texas Film Critics Awards
Annual US film awards ceremony (1994–1998)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Society of Texas Film Critics Awards were first awarded in 1994, when the Society of Texas Film Critics (STFC) was formed by 21 print, television, radio, and internet film critics working for different media outlets across the state of Texas.[1][2] Over the course of four years, the size of the organization decreased, and the STFC disbanded in 1998.
Below are the award ceremonies from each of the four years.
