Awards -- Chicago Film Critics

One of the last of the big critics group to announce this year is Chicago. They always do nominees first, which I like. This year, The Social Network leads with 8 nods, and Black Swan, King's Speech, True Grit, & Winter's Bone are garnered 6. Inception also finds itself in the Best Picture category.
