Raindance 2013 line-up announced

But did they make a mistake in putting Julian Assange on their jury?

Review: Ain't Them Bodies Saints

Rooney Mara is fantastic in this delicate, sun-soaked Western

Review: About Time

Ever since I was a boy, I always wondered about voice-overs...

Film review: Wadjda

Every now and then, a film comes along that changes the world. Sometimes, you don't even realise it's doing it.

World War H – or hate’s not all that

What do Shyamalan, World War Z and Man of Steel have in common? Hype - and hate.

Jessica Chastain's Campaign for World Domination Starts Here Print E-mail

The New York Film Critics Circle jumped the gun today and announced its award winners for the year. And, inevitably, they gave the Best Supporting Actress award to Jessica Chastain (The Help). And Jessica Chastain (Take Shelter). And Jessica Chastain (The Tree of Life).


The Best Film and Best Director both went (in a rare move) to The Artist and Michel Hazanavicius, while Brad Pitt and Meryl Streep both picked up lead acting gongs. But while some results were surprising (Albert Brooks, Best Supporting for Drive), some brilliant (Best Non-Fiction Film to the Oscar-snubbed Cave of Forgotten Dreams) and others predictable (Emmanuel Lubezki, Best Cinematography for The Tree of Life), the main thing to take away from the awards is that Jessica Chastain is a formidable Oscars contender. But not as formidable as Jessica Chastain. Or Jessica Chastain.


And so it's official: the campaign for all three Jessica Chastains to take over the world, King Ghidorah-style, is well underway. 

 

Jessica Chastain, awards - King Ghidorah 

Cower in terror at her triple-headed supporting prowess.

 

Just be glad she didn't win for The Debt and Coriolanus too. Then I'd have to think of a monster with five heads.
