I'm running out of comments about this season's critics awards, since they're generally coalescing around the same few candidates for each of the top prizes (this happens every year though). So it's five more awards for Nomadland, today from the Seattle Film Critics Society. Minari, Promising Young Woman, Sound of Metal... the usual suspects. The SFCS' 2020/21 award nominations are here.
