Denis Villeneuve's Incendies was next with 10 nominations, including Best Motion Picture and Best Director. It is currently a nominee for the 83rd Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film. Last year, Villeneuve's deeply moving masterpiece Polytechnique swept the Genie Awards with 9 wins.
Also nominated for Best Motion Picture were 10 ½, Les amours imaginaires (Heartbeats), and Splice. 10 ½ received a total of 8 nominations, while Les amours imaginaires and Splice each took four.
The Golden Reel Award for top box-office performer of 2010 will be awarded to Resident Evil: Afterlife. It grossed $7 million in Canada and over $280 million internationally. It is now the most successful production in Canadian feature film history. It received an additional five nominations.
Jephté Bastien (Sortie 67) will be honoured with the Claude Jutra Award, which recognizes outstanding achievement by a first-time feature filmmaker. Defendor director Peter Stebbings receives an honourable mention.
The 31st Annual Genie Awards take place at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa on Thursday, March 10, 2011. "By all accounts, this has been a fantastic year for Canadian cinema," said Sara Morton, CEO of the Academy of Canadian Cinema & Television.
