Perhaps the last of the major critics' groups to announce its awards nominees, the Online Film Critics Society has chosen Dune and The Power of the Dog to lead its field with nine nods each. Both receive Best Picture and Best Director nominations, up for both awards alongside Drive My Car, Licorice Pizza and, rebounding a little after a sleepy spell awards-wise, West Side Story. Winners will be announced on the 24th of January.
