Irish In Line for Critics' Choice Awards
12 Dec 2007 :
Saoirse Ronan
Irish actress Saoirse Ronan is in line for a Best Young Actress award at the 13th Annual Critics' Choice Awards. ‘Once’ acting / songwriting duo, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, have also picked up a nod for their track ‘Falling Slowly’.

Saoirse Ronan, just 13 years old, has been shortlisted for her role as Briony Tallis in Joe Wright’s ‘Atonement’. She stars opposite Keira Knightley (Pirates of the Caribbean, Love Actually) and James McAvoy (Inside I’m Dancing, Starter for 10) in the pic, an adaptation of the Ian McEwan’s novel.

Ronan will compete with Nikki Blonsky from ‘Hairspray’, Dakota Blue Richards from ‘The Golden Compass’ and AnnaSophia Robb from ‘Bridge to Terabithia’.

‘Falling Slowly’ from John Carney’s low budget pic ‘Once’ will contend for the Best Song Award. The song is gathering significant momentum in the Awards race having picked up Grammy nominations and an LA Critics Soundtrack Award in recent days. Tracks from Ridley Scott’s ‘American Gangster’, the musical ‘Hairspray’, Disney’s ‘Enchanted’ and Sean Penn’s ‘Into the Wild’ have also made the shortlist.

‘August Rush’, directed by Irish helmer Kirsten Sheridan and starring Cork man Jonathan Rhys Meyers, is also nominated for a ‘Best Family Film’ award.

Winners of the Critics' Choice Awards will be revealed at the 13th annual Critic’s Choice Awards ceremony on January 7th, 2008 at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium, broadcast live on VH1.

The awards are voted for by the Broadcast Film Critics Association which represents 199 television, radio and online critics.
