Who else should we spotlight in the Under the Circuit series?

As you no doubt see on the Main Page (but in case you missed it), Sam Rockwell is our latest subject for the Under the Circuit series of articles (the latest article on Rockwell can be found here), following in the footsteps of Michael Keaton (here), John Cusack (here), and Jim Carrey (here). As we move forward, look for an upcoming piece on Mark Ruffalo, among others, but who else would you like to see get featured in this series?
-Feel free to also comment on your favorite Sam Rockwell films, or anyone's in the series in general...

Happy 2 Year Anniversary Awards Circuit!!!


...technically it was yesterday but I think we may have cheated and technically launched on May 2, 2008 not May 1st but who's counting. Here's to another few years of entertainment loving, especially the movies.

Apologies for the AC Hiatus...

...there has been much going on with The Awards Circuit but most of all, putting together a new layout and fixing up the new blog that will be used this awards season. Also, Staff Writer John H. Foote will be running a LIVE blog for the Toronto film festival, and I am building that one as well.

I ask that you please remain a bit more patient as I fix this up. In other news, this week, ACCA 2003 winners will be announced for your pleasure as well as a half-dozen reviews of recently released feature films.

Comment. Talk amongst yourselves.
