I'll say this much in favour of the Women Film Critics Circle: they're women working in a male-dominated industry, striving to assert their integrity as individual journalists and their collective validity as such. And that's all I'll say in their favour, because that's all I can say in their favour. Here are their nominations, for which the winners will be announced... who cares?
