Gotham Awards Nominate Boyhood, Birdman, CitizenFour, Foxcatcher Cast

Share

The Gotham Awards are the first out of the box in December. The sort of Spirit Awards East gave the cast of Foxcatcher a special award for acting– Steve Carell, Mark Ruffalo, and Channing Tatum. Of the Best Features, it’s a toss up between Boyhood and Birdman. I am surprised “Whiplash” didn’t get a Best Feature nomination.
