Tracking the awards leading up to the Oscars

With movie awards season now in full swing, the Iraq war film “The Hurt Locker” is an early frontrunner, according to an award tracking survey by The Associated Press. But honors have been spread around to a number of movies as well. Jason Reitman’s uber-relevant “Up in the Air,” in particular, continues to win across multiple categories. And then there’s James Cameron’s “Avatar,” another major heavyweight, particularly at the box office.

A lot could still change before the Academy Awards on March 7. In between, the Broadcast Film Critics Association, Hollywood Foreign Press Association, Screen Actors Guild, Producers Guild, Directors Guild and the Film Independent organization all dole out awards.
