The last major critics group (before the Golden Globes) announced their picks today. The National Society of Film Critics matter in terms of influence on Oscars, but don't meet until early January.

Obviously, the New York and Los Angeles Film Critics have more patience and time than I do. Click below for the full list.

Hmmm...Milk just isn't that good. I love Leigh's Secrets & Lies (A) and am anxious to see Happy Go Lucky.
