BFCA gets a 'green light' from SAG
The following statement arrived from the BFCA yesterday evening. Good thing my fellow journalists aren't going to be the only ones set to see me decked out in my Sunday's finest tonight (or in this case, Monday's finest):
The 13th annual Critics' Choice Awards gala is happening on Monday, January 7, as scheduled. With a green light coming from the Screen Actors Guild, the stars are coming, including Sean Penn, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, and George Clooney, who will present Don Cheadle with the inaugural Joel Siegel Award. The BFCA is thrilled to be able to shine our light on the finest in cinematic achievement, with our friends in the creative community in attendance.
VH1 is broadcasting the festivities, starting with a live hour from the Red Carpet at 8 ET/PT. The two-hour Critics' Choice Awards ceremony will be broadcast at 9 ET/PT. Now is the time for us to shout it from the rooftops and get millions of television viewers to enjoy what seems sure to be a fabulous show.
Red Carpet District is Variety contributor Kristopher Tapley's attempt at making sense of the ever-expanding glut of film awards coverage. He's been on the beat for six years. Email
