Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (film)

Not all critics were negative about the nomination. Tom O'Neil, a former "L.A. Times" critic, analyzed the film's few nominations in other awards and its polarizing reaction from critics stating: "This is a movie that we unwisely wrote off, but we did it because we believed the critics. This movie delivers. It is a "superb" motion picture. It is moving, it is relevant to our time, it is "extremely" well made."
