Twin noms for DiCaprio a BFCA first

December 12, 2006 Leonardo DiCaprio will face off against Leonardo DiCaprio at the 12th annual Critics Choice Awards, which will be handed out Jan. 12. The hard-working DiCaprio has received best actor nominations for his work as a smuggler in "Blood Diamond" and an undercover cop in "The Departed" from the Broadcast Film Critics Assn., which will announce its year-end film nominations today. Representing 200 television, radio and online critics, the BFCA bills itself as the largest film critics' organization in the U.S. and Canada, and given its broad base, its choices often foreshadow the Oscar noms of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
