Argo continues its winning streak, although I wonder if its team will ever even hear of this win, compared to the Critics Choice and Golden Globes. Anne Hathaway wins in a leading / supporting category, and Keep the Lights On deservedly wins LGBT Film of the Year. Nominations? Here!

    I am sorry I have to differ with you on KEEP THE LIGHT ON, which I saw at Tribeca last year with my wife and my gay teaching colleague, who especially found this film a complete mess. Yet, I know it's been well-reviewed, so I will back off. In any case, the finest gay-themed film of the last few years was the British WEEKEND. I am thinking you will probably be in agreement on that.

    I have never heard of these awards, and agree that maybe Affleck won't know them either. LOL!! But more praise for some of the front-runners for sure.

      Haven't seen Weekend...

      Plz don't hurt me!

      Heck, I adored Keep the Lights On. Tugged on every ragged little heartstring I have left.

    I LOVE the fact that Anne Hathaway WON Actress of the Year even though she only played a supporting role in Les Mis! This just goes to show that her brief, yet powerful performance had a massive impact both in the movie and on the audience!! This is DEF her year!!!! I believe she won the same award via the Women's Critics Groups as well.

    One question though. . . How are the actors/actresses made aware that they won these critics awards? Are they contacted? Do they receive an actual award/certificate/plaque? Thanks Paddy!!!

      Haha I've no idea. I think awards from small groups like this are purely for the satisfaction of those who voted for them. The recipients probably never hear a thing about them.
