I have just finished tossing away the discarded ballots and
finished eating the leftover donuts and can report the results of the Boston
Society of Film Critics voting for 2008.
Let’s just say it’s a bit eclectic, a bit of a smorgasbord, with
only three films getting more than one award (“Wall-E,” and “Slumdog
Millionaire” getting two, or maybe one and a half,given the tie for Best
Picture, and “Milk” getting three, or
maybe just two and a half, given the tie for Best Actor, and many of the top
runners (“Benjamin Button,” Frost/Nixon,” “Revolutionary Road,” “The Reader,” “Rachel Getting Married”) getting
zilch.
