These really are nice! Go Drive and Martha Marcy May Marlene! Drive has gotten a ton of mentions this week. Hoping this will turn into some love from the Academy.

Re: D.C. Area Film Critics - Nominations
50/50 has been popping up a lot in various screenplay categories. It'd be nice if it got the Oscar nod too.

Re: D.C. Area Film Critics - Nominations
50/50 winning over Midnight in Paris is somewhat surprising.
Albert Brooks keeps looking stronger and stronger. I think it'll be down to him and Plummer.
