Austin Film Critics Association Awards 2009 |
Austin usually go their own way on the majority of categories with no regard for the Oscars which is probably why they have gone for The Dark Knight so much. Of course there is nothing wrong with going in their own way put it doesn't help us in finding the Oscar winner. The only category that stands out from Austin is Best Actor. This will give Sean Penn more cheer but not much for the others. |
