    Reverse Shot published their top ten of the year. It really was a fantastic read.

    I know Kids got an ensemble nod at SAG. But other than that …. I think it will really struggle to hold onto one of the 10 slots, along with Winter’s Bone.

    Both may get in, both could miss, 1 may barely make it in, etc..

    I don’t always agree with Reverse Shot, but damn they have a talented group of writers.

    I hate to sound so negative and dismissive because it’s not what I’m stressing here but isn’t it in the nature of a ten picture setup to have a lot of award also-runs? When looking through that kind of prism neither Kids not Winter’s Bone look that weak.
