National Board of Review Winners (2010)

I've shared before that I really enjoy the National Board of Review awards that kick off the award season...sometimes before some films get their big releases.

This year's awards show some major love for The Social Network, while ignoring some films like 127 Hours and Black Swan completely.

Let award season begin! Here's the winners below.
