This year's Online Film Critics Society Awards have been revealed, and it's more good news for 70 year old director George Miller, who has won Best Director while his hit film Mad Max: Fury Road has taken Best Picture. Miller's wife, Margaret Sixel, won Best Editing for her work on the film, which also won Best Cinematography.
