Came back from a weekend in Boston where I had the privilege of attending this year's Chlotrudis Awards! A fun time was had by all in an extremely casual but passionate celebration of film, and in finally giving some recognition to under rewarded movies from the past year. Winter's Bone was obviously the big winner of the night with 4 wins of its 8 nominations (Picture, Director, Adapted Screenplay and Cinematography). Ryan Gosling tied with Philip Seymour Hoffman for Best Actor while Kim Hye-ja won for Best Actress for Mother, which also took Best Original Screenplay. Hopefully her Korean contemporary, Jeong-hee Yoon, will get the opportunity to be recognized next year for her sure-to-be overlooked work in Poetry. The supporting prizes went to Geoffrey Rush for The King's Speech and the incomparable Jacki Weaver for Animal Kingdom.
