Movie Awards Season Has Started
The first film-honors sweepstakes of the season kicked off today with the announcement of the Gotham Award nominations, honoring independent film. “Into the Wild” and “Margot at the Wedding” did especially well in the nominations, though it’s fair to say that the former, not the latter, is the indie movie with perhaps the best chance of Oscar attention. Movie-awards season, like Christmas, seems to inch earlier and earlier every year. How long before the Oscars exist in a truly Einsteinian universe and the 2010 awards take places before the 2009 honors?
