Awards -- Broadcast Film Critics (Critics Choice)

One of my favorite groups to watch every year, the Broadcast Film Critics, have announced their nominees. Strong showing from many expected contenders, but leading the pack, with a whopping 12 nominations, is Black Swan!!! That is a record for the most nominations for a single film that the Broadcast Critics have ever given. The King's Speech & True Grit both ranked in just behind with 11, and Inception with 10. Taking a look at the list, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if these 10 films ended up being the exact 10 that Oscar will announce too.
