The 2009 Sullivan-Gooley Award Nominees Posted!

Hi Friends-
In case you're not familiar with myself or great friend Sam Gooley, we've hosted our own awards show since 1999 honoring the films we believe should have won Best Picture.

Every year on Oscar night, we reveal the winners.

Since Shakespeare in Love somehow beat Saving Private Ryan for Best Picture of 1998, we decided something had to change. As we reveal previous winners over the weeks leading up to Oscar night, you can check out our entire list of nominess for the 2009 Sullivan-Gooley Awards for all films released in the 2008 calendar year.
