4815162342 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 NYFCO gives Screenplay to The DescendantsBoston gives Screenplay to Moneyball. On a side note, Boston critics love Margaret. It is the runner-up for Supporting Actress, Ensemble, and Screenplay so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) LA went for Descendants as wellThe Descendants was the runner-up. A Separation wins the award.But since A Separation is really only a contender for Foreign Language Film, it's essentially a Descendants win.

Gopher Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Looks like the only thing out of the critics race is that Brooks is the frontrunner for Supporting Actor. Which I'm more than okay with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Tree of Life wins Cinematography at NYFCO. It's won every critic award so far. Just give it the Oscar now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 Anyone seen A History of Violence? Brooks in Drive reminds me of William Hurt in that. Both got loads of awards attention just because both actors don't really play roles like that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I mean, to go from voicing Marlin the Clownfish in Finding Nemo to this, it's a HUGE change.It's like how Ben Kingsley got awards heat in 2001 for playing a gangster in Sexy Beast and parlayed a Supporting Actor nomination out of it.

Any actor who doesn't normally play angry gangsters who plays an angry gangster is guaranteed an Oscar nomination, it seems. Because if Bobby DeNiro had played Bernie Rose nobody would give that peformance a second glance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) Boston gives BP to The Artist. Hugo and Margaret are runners-up.NYFCO gives Director to The Artist.Well, if nothing else then a consensus is forming for BP and BD. Annoying, since I want a free-for-all!

4815162342 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Boston's award list is interesting because Margaret was a runner-up for Picture, Ensemble, Screenplay, and Supporting Actress, and the group just tweeted that many of the critic members couldn't see Margaret because there was only 1 screening in the area and the studio did not send out DVD screeners.So, if the studio made more of an effort to spread Margaret out, it could have been dominant in Boston.
