Another one announced theirs...

"The ballots have been counted (all 15 of 'em), and the results are official: members of the North Texas Film Critics Association have picked Slumdog Millionaire as their favorite film of 2008.

Danny Boyle, who directed Slumdog, also gets the nod for best director.

Rounding out the tally:

* Best Actor: Frank Langella, in Frost/Nixon

* Best Actress: Meryl Streep, in Doubt

* Best Supporting Actor: Heath Ledger, in The Dark Knight

* Best Supporting Actress: Amy Adams, in Doubt

* Best Cinematography: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

* Best Animated Film (by unanimous decision): WALL-E

* Best Documentary: Young @ Heart

* Best Foreign Language Film: Let the Right One In

Is this group brand new? I have never heard of them at all.

Some boring winners as usual in the critic groups. However i am surprised about the win for Frank Langella.

Oh yes..i think this may be her first win.

Nice to see Amy Adams pick something up
