The New York Film Critics Circle made waves by moving their awards announcement up to November 29 in an effort to claim “First!” but Oscar-watchers have to admit: Between the NYFCC Twitter roll-out and this morning’s Spirit Awards nominations, there’s a crackle in the air on an otherwise slo-o-o-w news day. So what if the New York critics didn’t get a chance to see everything before voting today? They saw Tree of Life! (Clearly.) Hit the jump for the list of winners.
List of NYFCC winners, updated as announced:
Best First Feature: Margin Call
Best Nonfiction Film: Cave of Forgotten Dreams

Thoughts so far (add your own below):
It’s certainly been a banner year for Chastain, but Pitt for Best Actor? That oughta shake things up in the Oscarsphere. And what’s with this idea of awarding a performer for multiple cumulative performances vs. one great turn?…
