Apparently Shame was entered only in International Film. The Artist wasn't, hence why it wasn't nominated there but for everything else (Well, sans Bojo). Clooney's snub is really odd though.

Surprisingly strong showing for Drive. With this and Brook's NY win it's been a good day for the movie.

Weird how Midnight in Paris got in for Supporting Actor and nothing else.

No Felicity Jones in Best Actress. :(

Otherwise, quite nice. Love the love for Beginners, Take Shelter, and Drive.

The Clooney snub is bizarre, especially since they seemed fond of the film in general.

A few other oddities:

- They recognized Huston for 50/50, but not Gordon-Levitt or Anna Kendrick.
- Janet McTeer in, but not Glenn Close.
