<p>Colin Firth and Facebook drama The Social Network have been honoured by Hollywood film critics.</p>
<p>The Social Network was picked as the year&#8217;s best picture by the influential Los Angeles Film Critics Association. Their best-actor prize went to Colin Firth for the British monarchy tale The King&#8217;s Speech, while Kim Hye-ja won best actress for the South Korean drama Mother. </p>
<p>The runners-up were Edgar Ramirez for the terrorist epic Carlos and Jennifer Lawrence for the Ozarks crime thriller Winter&#8217;s Bone.</p>
<p>Overseas crime dramas won the other acting honours: Jacki Weaver as supporting actress for Australia&#8217;s Animal Kingdom and Niels Arestrup as supporting actor for France&#8217;s A Prophet. </p>
<p>The runners-up were Olivia Williams for the thriller The Ghost Writer and Geoffrey Rush for The King&#8217;s Speech.</p>
<p>In a tie vote, the directing prize was shared by David Fincher for The Social Network and Olivier Assayas for Carlos, which also was the best-picture runner-up. Carlos won for best foreign-language film, and the runner-up was Mother.</p>
<p>The Social Network, which stars Jesse Eisenberg as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, won two other honours: Aaron Sorkin earned the best-screenplay prize, while composers Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross shared the award for best musical score with Alexandre Desplat for The Ghost Writer.</p>
<p>The runner-up for best screenplay was David Seidler for The King&#8217;s Speech, which stars Firth as Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s father, George VI, as he struggles to overcome a debilitating stammer.</p>
<p>Tom Hanks and Tim Allen&#8217;s blockbuster Toy Story 3 was chosen as best animated film, while French filmmaker Sylvain Chomet&#8217;s The Illusionist was runner-up. Winners, including career-achievement recipient Paul Mazursky, will be honoured at a ceremony in Los Angeles on January 15.</p>
