Dallas-Ft. Worth Critics Winners

I really like their format. Instead of just saying the winners, they let you see who else was nominated, and how they were ranked. There's just one disturbing thing...(you'll see in just a moment)

BEST PICTURE
1. No Country for Old Men
2. Juno
3. There Will Be Blood
4. Atonement
5. Michael Clayton
6. Into the Wild
7. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
8. The Kite Runner
9. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
10. Charlie Wilson's War

a pretty awesome top 10 list. We could easily assume that (being in Texas) that they haven't seen Sweeney Todd.

BEST ACTOR
1. Daniel Day-Lewis
2. George Clooney
3. Frank Langella
4. Tommy Lee Jones
5. Emile Hirsch

yup. No Depp. GREAT to see that Tommy Lee Jones was considered, but there's no way in hell that Clooney was better. Daniel Day-Lewis winning isn't a surprise.

BEST ACTRESS
1. Julie Christie
2. Marion Cotillard
3. Ellen Page
4. Laura Linney
5. Angelina Jolie

it would appear that 3 of the best actress slots are sewn up. It's spots 4 and 5 that are going to be tricky. Good for Linney, but how dare they nominated Jolie over Amy Adams.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
1. Javier Bardem
2. Philip Seymour Hoffman
3. Casey Affleck
4. Tom Clinton (I can only assume they mean Tom Wilkinson?)
5. Hal Holbrook

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
1. Tilda Swinton
2. Amy Ryan
3. Cate Blanchett
4. Saoirse Ronan
5. Jennifer Jason Leigh

She finally won!! And JJL got in. Her buzz isn't dead after all. It's just on life support.

BEST DIRECTOR
1. Joel and Ethan Coen
2. Paul Thomas Anderson
3. Tim Burton
4. Julian Schnabel
5. Sean Penn

Good for the Coens and OH DEAR GOD. They have seen Sweeney Todd. And Depp didn't make their lineup. Let's hope they're in the minority about his performance...

BEST SCREENPLAY
1. Juno
2. No Country for Old Men

BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY
1. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
2. (tie) The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
2. (tie) No Country for Old Men

BEST FOREIGN FILM
1. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
2. La Vie en Rose
3. 4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days
4. Lust, Caution
5. Black Book

again, France must be kicking themselves for submitting Persepolis over "Diving Bell" for foreign language film at the Oscars.

BEST ANIMATED
1. Ratatouille
2. Persepolis

BEST DOCUMENTARY
1. The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters
2. SiCKO
3. No End in Sight
4. My Kid Could Paint That
5. Crazy Love
