You probably already know that the Academy Award nominations are announced on January 22, 2008 at 5:30 a.m. PST. Until then, critics associations nationwide are doling out awards as if they were pennies from heaven. The LA Film Critics have deemd Paul Thomas Anderson's yet-to-be-released There Will Be Blood best picture and the film's star Daniel Day-Lewis best actor. For their part, the Boston Society of Film Critics and the New York Film Critics Circle each named No Country for Old Men as best film and artist-turned-director Julian Schnabel as best director for The Diving Bell and the Butterfly'. With the National Board of Review chiming in with a best picture nod for No Country, is the Cormac McCarthy-inspired movie destined for Oscar greatness? Possibly. More certain is the likelihood that a host of other critics associations will weigh in before the Academy Awards are finally decreed on February 24, 2008.
