Previous films receiving the award include "The Great Debaters," "Precious" and "In the Land of Blood and Honey." "'Bully' is a powerful and inspiring film that brought much needed-attention to an issue that just about everyone can relate to at one point or another in their life," said awards chair Michael De Luca in a statement Tuesday.
