European Film Awards 2009

The winners have been announced for the 22nd European Film Awards for film in 2009. I'm going to keep an eye on these ones as most have not made their release here yet with the exception of The Reader, Slumdog Millionaire and Antichrist. No big surprize to see Michael Haneke's Das weisse Band / The White Ribbon picking up multiples wins as did Un prophète / A Prophet.

Now on to the winners.
