Detroit Film Critics Nominees

Some really nice picks like (500) Days of Summer, Sam Rockwell, Melanie Laurent, Alison Lohman, and Woody Harrelson. I feel bad for Melanie Laurent and Marion Cotillard however, cause they are being pushed as leads in their movies, but recognition is recognition either (a la Kate Winslet). Also surprising was that Precious received 4 nominations, but no Best Picture nod, the strengths of this movie are truly the acting.
