Ushering in the movie awards season, the National Board of Review on Wednesday named the not-yet-released The Hours the best film of 2002. The film, based on Michael Cunningham's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about novelist Virginia Woolf, stars Nicole Kidman (as Woolf), Julianne Moore, and Meryl Streep. Moore won the organization's Best Actress award, but for her performance in another film, Far From Heaven. Campbell Scott (the son of the late George C. Scott) won the Best Actor award for his performance in Rodger Dodger. Phillip Noyce picked up the best director award for two films, both currently in release, The Quiet American and Rabbit-Proof Fence. Charlie Kaufman received the screenwriting award for Adaptation, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Human Nature. Michael Moore's Bowling for Columbine was named best documentary, while Hayao Miyazaki's Sprited Away won for best animated feature. The Hours is set to have a limited release in the U.S. on Dec. 27 (with a national roll-out on Jan. 17).

It's that time already -- the 2002 awards season kicked off Wednesday with the National Board of Review bestowing top honors on Stephen Daldry's The Hours, which nabbed the group's best film of the year award. Lead acting awards went to Campbell Scott for his little-seen turn as a bitter ladies' man in Roger Dodger, while Julianne Moore picked up the first of probably many accolades for her acclaimed performance as a `50s housewife in Far From Heaven. Supporting nods went to Chris Cooper for his portrayal of orchid thief John Laroche in Spike Jonze's Adaptation, and Kathy Bates for her work in the Jack Nicholson comedy About Schmidt. Australian director Phillip Noyce scored a two-fer for best director, with the board citing his work for both The Quiet American and Rabbit-Proof Fence, while screenwriter Charlie Kaufman pulled a hat trick, being named screenwriter of the year for Adaptation, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Human Nature. --Prepared by IMDb staff
