When the Chicago Film Critics Association announced their winners for 2011 earlier this week, there was a lot of nodding going on in the Chicagoist Arts and Entertainment underground bunker, where they keep us chained to a radiator, watching movies for 23 hours a day (one hour for posting). Yes, The Tree of Life took down four awards, but there was otherwise a pleasing variety among this year's winners and admirably little to complain about. This year's critics association awards season finds The Tree of Life battling with The Artist for awards supremacy, with The Descendants occasionally trying to make it a three-horse race. With The Tree of Life snagging Picture, Director, Cinematography and a Supporting Actress victory for Jessica Chastain from the CFCA, Terrence Malick's opus nets another exhibit for its prosecution of an Academy Awards case. Yes, we would have been tickled if the supporting actress insurgency of Anna Paquin ( Margaret ) had nudged her ahea...

The Academy has released its full list of films that want to be considered for Oscars and as lists go, it can be a startling read. For every "Take Shelter" there's a "Take Me Home Tonight;" for every "Shame" there's a "Shark Night 3D;" for every "Drive," a "Drive Angry." The full list is also here . REMINDER LIST OF PRODUCTIONS ELIGIBLE FOR AWARDS All films that have qualified for consideration for 2011 Academy Awards in the non-specialized categories are listed alphabetically by title.
