This year’s Film Independent’s Spirit Award nominations have been announced, and while we’re a little shocked that Rachel Getting Married scored five nods (including a really ludicrous one for Best First Screenplay), we’re more excited to see some of our favorite smaller indie flicks from the past year made the cut.
Namely Frozen River, Chop Shop, Take Out, The Signal, and In Search of a Midnight Kiss — all fantastic and with the exception of Frozen River (which comes out in early 2009), currently available to rent on DVD.
