With temperatures dropping steadily and the autumn getting under was, it's time for awards season to officially begin. The Gotham Independent Film Awards gets things started this year, releasing their annual list of nominees.
The list includes some big names, like the Coen Brothers for their film "A Serious Man," as well as some other buzz worthy films including Kathryn Bigelow's "The Hurt Locker," and Robert Seigel's "Big Fan."
The Best Ensemble Performance category has a great group of nominees including "Adventureland," which in my opinion was one of the funniest and underrated movies of the year, directed by Greg Mottola ("Superbad") starring Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart (picture, above), Martin Starr, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader and Ryan Reynolds.
The Iraq war drama, "The Hurt Locker" was also nominated for it's fantatsic cast which includes Jeremy Renner (who was also nominated for Breakout Perfoamance), Guy Pearce and Anothony Mackie. Also nominated was "Sugar," another underrated film about the hardships of minor league baseball, which was directed by the team of Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden ("Half Nelson").
