Cheers and hisses

Cheers to the San Francisco Critics, which honored KC with a Best Supporting Actor award for TUOA:

And cheers to the Satellite Awards and the Critic's Choice (Broadcast and internet critics), who nominated him for awards....

A big HISS to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and their Golden Fleece (with apologies to Senator William Proxmire) Awards, which left both KC and Joan Allen out--and seriously threatens their Oscar nomination hopes. I mean, I like Pierce Brosnan too, but a Golden Globe nomination this time? And one critic took a jab at Johnny Depp being nominated for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

A good portion of the blame, of course, goes to Cheap Line Cinema (that's New Line for the uninitiated), which did a horrible job of promoting The Upside of Anger both here and around the world.

I believe the Satellite Awards are given by reporters who broke off from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Good choice.
