Die Broadcast Film Critics Association, der größte Verband der Filmkritiker in den USA und in Kanada, hat heute seine Nominierungen für die Critic’s Choice Movie Awards 2012 bekanntgegeben.
Es ist die 17. Veranstaltung ihrer Art, die vielleicht schon ein kleiner Fingerzeig auf die Oscars ist, wobei sich ja in der Regel die Gewinner der „Golden Globes“ am meisten Hoffnung machen können auf die Goldstatue.
Die 200 Fernseh-, Radio- und Online-Kritiker haben Filme wie „Midnight in Paris“ (wunderbarer Streifen!!!) von Woody Ellen, Brad Pitts „Moneyball“ oder sein „The Tree Of Life“ für die Kategorie „Bester Film“ nominiert.
Leonardo DiCaprio („J. Edgar“), Michael Fassbender („Shame“), und George Clooney („The Descendants“) zählen zu den Nominierten als „Beste Schauspieler“. Die weiblichen Gegenparts spielen bei den Critic’s Choice Movie Awards 2012 Charlize Theron („Young Adult“), Michelle Williams („My Week With Marilyn“) und Meryl Streep („The Iron Lady“).
Als beste Jungschauspielerin ist Elle Fanning für ihre Rolle in „Super 8“ nominiert. Der letzte Teil der Harry Potter-Filme „Deathly Hallows 2“ heimste ganze VIER Nominierungen ein, darunter auch für das Make-Up und die Special Effects.
Die Critic’s Choice Movie Awards werden am 12. Januar 2012 in Hollywood vergeben. Im letzten Jahr zählten u.a. Colin Firth und Natalie Portman zu den großen Gewinnern. Alle Nominierten gibt es jetzt in der Komplettübersicht.
