Nominations announced for 2011 Moët British Independent Film Awards
The nominations have today been announced for the 14th annual Moët British Independent Film Awards, which are due to be held on the 4th December in London – and as usual a wide variety of independent British cinema stands to be honoured, with nominations ranging from high-profile star vehicles to ultra-low-budget indie flicks.
Shame, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Tyrannosaur have each received seven nominations, with We Need to Talk About Kevin and Kill List scooping six each and five going to Submarine.
We’re also particularly pleased to see nods for Brendan Gleeson and John Michael McDonagh (Best Actor/Best Screenplay, The Guard), Joe Cornish and John Boyega (Best Debut Director/Most Promising Newcomer, Attack the Block) and Felicity Jones (Best Supporting Actress, Albatross). The nominations for the Variety Award, the Richard Harris Award for outstanding contribution to British film (last won by Helena Bonham Carter) and the Special Jury Prize have not yet been released; the others follow.
