Awards - Online Film Critics

One of my favorite awards of every year, as you can imagine. Many times I find myself agreeing with their choices, if not at least with their nominees. Hopefully, in the near future, I can gain membership myself. There are a few films I'm surprised to not see represented but all in all, I think they are a solid group of choices. Here are the full nominees...and winners. The Tree of Life takes home 5 awards, including Supporting Actress, Director & Best Picture.
