Jack Nicholson has been nominated in the Best Supporting Actor category for his performance in The Departed, by the Broadcast Film Critics Association. The Departed received 7 nominations including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Ensemble. The BFCA is the largest critics group in America and it's choices often foreshadow the Oscar nominations. The awards will be given out at a ceremony on January 20th and highlights will be shown on E! The main competition is thought to come from Dreamgirls in the supporting category and from Letters from Iwo Jima and The Queen in the Best Picture category. Still being nominated is no mean feat given the competition, so congratulations are definitely in order! Full list of all nominees in all categories can be seen here.

I have added an ad thanks to Oscarwatch that Warner Bros have put out to celebrate The Departed's Box Office success and as part of the Best Picture campaign. Click on the thumbnail above to view.

The chance to be appear as an extra in Jack Nicholson's next movie The Bucket List which has just begun filming is being auctioned by Charity Folks, the auction closes December 13 and all proceeds go to help the charity, People for the American Way. Bidding is already at $5,500 but if you can afford it, I'm sure it would be a great experience and a chance to help a worthy cause.
