The 77th Annual New York Film Critic's Circle Awards Gala was held in New York on Monday night (09Jan12). Actresses Jessica Chastain (The Tree Of Life; The Debt; Take Shelter) and Viola Davis (The Help; Eat Pray Love; Knight and Day) briefly stood on the red carpet for the photographers but it was Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt who were the biggest draws. However, much like Viola before them and to the disappointment of the photographers, the superstar couple did not stay long on the red carpet. Brad had brought along a cane with him to aid his walking; he explained later that he recenty injured his knee ligament after a fall with his three year old daughter, Vivienne.

During the ceremony, Brad and (silent film themed) The Artist cleaned up with Brad winning the coveted Best Actor award for his roles in Moneyball and The Tree of Life. The Artist was named Best Picture and its director, Michel Hazanavicius, scooped Best Director.
