January 8: Cronenberg wins Nat'l Society of Film Critics award
According to The Hollywood Reporter, David Cronenberg has been named Best Director of 2005 for A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE by the National Society of Film Critics. The group of 57 reviewers from all over the U.S. also named the film's Ed Harris (pictured) as Best Supporting Actor, and the movie itself came in a very close second (to CAPOTE) for Best Picture. Meanwhile, Fango pal Josh Olson has been nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay by the Writers Guild of America for his VIOLENCE script (winners to be announced February 4), and he and John Wagner and Vince Locke, creators of the graphic novel upon which the movie is based, are up for a USC Scripter Award, which goes to the best screen adaptation and the source authors. —Michael Gingold
