They nominated Julianne Moore for A Single Mn last year when few other groups did.OscarGuy wrote:And The Kids Are All Right has one of the year's best ensemble, but only Annette Bening was worth nominating?
On the surface, these appear to be decent nods. No Best Picture or Director nominations for The King's Speech is a little surprising as is the lack of notice for Rabbit Hole aside from Nicole Kidman and the complete shut-out of Blue Valentine.
I wonder what's behind Anne Hathaway's nomination. Did they really like her, or is it spillover for her being tapped to co-host the Oscars?

And they call themselves film critics. I find it very hard to believe that anyone who is serious about cinema could not find at least one foreign language performance to nominate.
Maybe theses should be called the Washington DC Area Mainstream Movie Reviewer's Nominations.
