The 2010 Gotham Independent Film Awards were held last night, and the terrific Winter’s Bone took two of the top prizes, Best Feature and Best Ensemble Cast. It was one of my top favorite films of the year, so I’m glad to see it got some recognition. The fact that it managed to beat out both Blue Valentine and Black Swan, two amazing films, should tell you something. Check out the other winners below the cut.
