Boston Society of Film Critics

They've announced their choices for Best of 2007 ...


Picture: No Country For Old Men
Best Picture is what it's about, mais non?
Director: Julian Schnabel The Diving Bell and Butterfly
See previous Schnabel-centric post here --he could be a director nominee with AMPAS. I could totally see that. He's wayyyy too low on my prediction chart. What was I thinking?
Actor: Frank Langella Starting Out in the Evening
I hear this book is excellent
Actress: Marion Cotillard La Vie En Rose
Still the Oscar frontrunner for best actress on account of the mimicry biopic thing

Supporting Actor: Javier Bardem No Country For Old Men
Unless one of the older nominees marshalls 'honor my whole career' support, the Oscar is his to lose, I think
Supporting Actress:
Amy Ryan Gone Baby Gone
I still don't really get it.
Screenplay: Brad Bird Ratatouille
Very cool Boston
Cinematography: Janusz Kaminski The Diving Bell and Butterfly
Documentary: Crazy Love
Ensemble: Before the Devil Knows You're Dead
New Filmmaker:
Ben Affleck for Gone Baby Gone
Boston's hometown boy (duh!)

Here's a look at the past ten years. They rarely separate Picture and Director wins and their choices for "best" seem to be drifting ever closer to "Oscar Predictions" - unfortunately that's happening with many of the film critic societies and organizations.
