January films begin and Clara winners

Some late movies were added to the list come the ending of the year, and now that it is nearly the middle of the month.

"Little Women" walked away with adaptation of a previous written work, as the umpteenth remake of that series. 

"1917" was not a sequel to the 2018 version or the earlier 1970 version, but still got an okay, even though critics are fawning all over it for its realism about WW1, although therein is a caveat, some of it is far from realistic. The film depicts at times a single hero dodging machine guns and snipers. Nope. Also coincidences and crashes made it kind of silly in parts. It likely won't get the Oscar because it's not making much money, but neither did "Dark Waters" the DuPont movie.

Clara Movie Winners:
