Animal Kingdom gets 10 nods from Aussie critics

The Waiting CityThe Film Critics Circle of Australia has announced the nominees for its 2010 Awards, and Animal Kingdom leads the pack with 10 nominations.

Beneath Hill 60 and The Waiting City follow behind with eight nominations each; Tomorrow, When the War Began has five, and Bran Nue Dae and South Solitary have four each.

It’s the first awards ceremony to recognise the previosly ignored Lou and The Waiting City as two of the best films of the year in the main categories; it’s also the first official recognition for South Solitary, which its producers did not even submit for consideration at last December’s AFI Awards.

The ceremony will be held on March 13 at the North Sydney Leagues Club in Cammeray.
