I meant her being an aussie helped her win ,i was meaning to say i found it strange she won seeing she hasn`t won any other awards or hardly being nominated ,I thought maybe she won because she was an aussie , like how the Bafta`s tend to reward a brit when they haven`t won any other award . I`m sure Nicole is deserving and i`m glad she won , as you say she `s hasn`t been recognised by the Aus film industry since 89. I know Mel Gibson isn`t Australian , but we still seem to claim him as one but again he hasn`t won any other critics award so strange why he won then , sure it`s the voters choice and they voted to what they thought was deserving .
If Lion is an Aus film then i`m sure it will get nominated for this year`s Aacta awards, i just found it strange how it was up for international awards if it is an Aus film. Bafta`s do have a seperate category for best british film but still nominate british films with international films for Best film.
