27 Telluride nominations:

11 The Artist
7 The Descendants
2 Shame
2 We Need to Talk About Kevin
1 each for George Harrison, Le Havre, A Separation, In Darkness and Albert Nobbs.

Happy surprises:  Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan both get nominated for Shame.  Albert Nobbs gets a makeup nomination.  Ezra Miller is nominated for "Young Actor".

Saddest surprises:  No Glenn Close OR Janet McTeer from Albert Nobbs.

Overall:  The Artist and Hugo continue their mutual assault with The Descendants also in the thick of the "major" categories.

Extremely Loud clearly has some admirers and The Tree of Life continues to show up though I was a little surprised that Malick didn't get a Best Director nod here.

Tomorrow The Screen Actors Guild announces their nominations.  Golden Globes on Thursday...
