There was exciting news today for people too snooty to watch the Oscars. The Spirit Award nominees were announced today. The awards honor independent films untarnished by big studio suits only concerned with money, which also ensures that you’ve probably never heard of any of these nominees. Nominees for best picture are “Frozen River”, “Rachel Getting Married”, “Ballast”, “Wendy and Lucy”, and “The Wrestler”. I don’t know about you, but the only way I could be more excited over this list of fine films was if I had ever seen or even heard about any of them. In real award news, the Oscar ceremony this year is being held on February 22nd, so go ahead and set your TiVos for that now.
