Broadcast Film Critics release nominations

Black Swan received a record-breaking 12 nominations from the Broadcast Film Critics Association.

The Broadcast Film Critics Association, a group to which I belong, has issued the results of its first round of year-end voting. The group's awards ceremony -- to be broadcast live on VH1 on Jan. 14 -- has often served as a bellwether for the Academy Awards. Oscar hopefuls take note: Black Swan led the BFCA field with 12 nominations. Director Darren Aronofsky's movie was followed by The King's Speech and True Grit, each of which garnered 11 nominations.

Here's the BFCA list:
