This brings PTA's career nominations total to 14, and the film's 13 nods dwatf PTA's next-most-nominated in There Will Be Blood. I don't need to tell you what you already know about how much this film has landed. It's been racking up wins left and right since awards season began in earnest a month or two ago to show for it, and hey by the way it's hitting theatres again this week! Can never ride that river of hills too many times.
Expect a proper awards (and interviews!) roundup here in the next week --
