The film awards are already upon us. This past week and weekend, four film associations released their end of year awards and/or nominations: Independent Film (Spirit Awards), LA Film Critics, New York Film Critics, and the National Board of Review.  For this post, I want to highlight the awards by the National Board of Review.

The National Board of Review, the first film awards of the year, awarded The Departed the Best Director (Martin Scorsese) and Best Ensemble Cast awards.  However, Clint Eastwoods film, not yet released, Letters from Iwo Jima, won for Best Picture. 

Cars won Best Animated Film.

Vovler, starring Penelope Cruz, won Best Foreign Film.

An Inconvenient Truth won Best Documentary.

The National Board of Review also list their best ten films of the year. Other than Eastwood's Letters from Iwo Jima, the shortlisted films are:

Babel
Blood Diamond
The Departed
The Devil Wears Prada
Flags Of Our Fathers
The History Boys
Little Miss Sunshine
Notes On A Scandal
The Painted Veil
