The Halfway Awards celebrate the best of film between January 1st and June 30th each year. They also represent the start of a new season here at The Awards Psychic. Yes that is the 11th Annual you see. This is the start of my eleventh year here. That means that (as of July 12th) I will have been doing this blog a full decade. So this is the start of our celebration of 10 years here. I will soon start my Top 100 Films and then in the spring after the Oscars, The Top 100 Television Shows of the first decade of The Awards Psychic. Thank you all for tuning in, and enjoy my favorite films and performances from the first half of 2019.
