Actor: Joseph Gordon-Levitt - 50/50 (RU: Jean Dujardin - The Artist)

Documentary: Senna (RU: Project Nim)
Foreign Language Film: A Separation (RU: 13 Assassins)
Animated Film: Rango (RU tie: The Adventures of Tintin/Kung-Fu Panda 2)

The bottom four categories sum up why I like these selections. If I had to pick my Top 2/3 for those categories, they would match up exactly with the selections here. Though I would put Lubezki at the top for Cinematography. Great to see Drive being recognised.
