MAIN Arrow to Art & Culture Art & ... Arrow to Hollywood Pop Culture Arrow to Critics Choice Awards 2009 Critics Choice Awards

Critics Choice AwardsSure, everybody's a critic.

The opinons that pull the most weight, however, are from the 200 film critics that make up the Broadcast Film Critics Association, the largest film critics organization in the U.S. and Canada.

This year, nominees for best picks in moving acting and directing were announced on December 9, 2008. In the recent past, the awards ceremony was taped for later viewing, but in 2009 viewers are able to watch the live presentation airing on Thursday evening at 9PM ET, January 8, 2009 on VH1 from the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.
