Awards - St. Louis Film Critics

Continuing with the central America swing, the St. Louis critics have announced their nominees. A few new categories here, almost in a way similar to what I do with my yearly awards. Strong showings from a lot of the usual suspects here, but finally we see some love for a few forgotten films. Hanna pops up in a number of categories, as do The Muppets, Drive & The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Full nominees below...
