Dallas Fort Worth Film Critics Association Awards 2009 |
The Dallas Association is a very good Oscar indicator overall and is excellent in certain areas. Its best area is the Best Animated movie where it hardly ever puts a foot wrong so Wall-E gets yet another boost. Sean Penn (Actor) and Danny Boyle (Director) also have won in categories that Dallas excel on and with how all the other precursors have gone so far these three could easily be winners on the night. Anne Hathaway, Viola Davis and Milk for Best Screenplay also get valuable points in my table as Dallas are also good at their categories. |
