Hello everyone and welcome to the second annual Cinefiles award show here on the Cinefiles

YouTube channel. I am one of your hosts for this afternoon slash evening, depending on when you're

watching this. John Roker joined as always by my co-host on the show and man who loves films so deeply and worships them,

who is a director, writer, producer, and co-host on the Cidophiles, Steve Morris.

How are you, Steve?

Well, first of all, I'm thrilled to have a full and complete introduction, and you are absolutely right.

I do love films, and what I'm so excited about

is this is our chance not just to celebrate one great film of the past. This is our chance to celebrate

all the incredible filmmakers of this year and to do it with the help of all of our supporters,

who are just as much in love with movies as we are. I mean, that's an incredible

thing. And to have all of their contributions, their votes, their comments, and their presentations

is absolutely thrilling. Yes, you're absolutely right, Steve. I feel the same way. And it's one of

the things that I really like about this show that we do specifically. We do a lot of live shows.

We do our episodes but this is

great because we get to hear from the fans from all over the world and all over our patreon and our

people who are who are not necessarily on our patreon who get to give us their points of views on all of

this of course the every single category here, every single

winner is voted on by you all there here on the Cine Files fandom. And we will tell you the nominees

and we will play you the winners in a fun little video. And we've got great guests who have been

very kindly recorded intros for some of the categories here on the show.

So sit back, relax, this is going to be a lot of fun.

And some of you may recognize some of the people as former guests on our show, but also as members of our advisory board, Steve.
