You won't be hearing the name
Steven Soderbergh
at this year's Independent Spirit Awards.
Instead, try
Miguel Arteta
,
Darren Aronofsky
and
Kenneth Lonergan
-- whose "
Chuck & Buck
," "
Requiem for a Dream
," and "
You Can Count On Me
," respectively, have nabbed a field-best five nominations each at the 16th Annual Independent Spirit Awards.
"
Chuck & Buck
" -- the second full-length feature from
Arteta
-- was nominated for best feature under $500,000, screenplay, director, supporting female (
Lupe
Ontiveros
) and debut performance (
Mike White
).
Among "
Requiem
's" nominations are best director (
Darren Aronofsky
) and best feature. The drug-addiction flick will go up against "
Before Night Falls
," "
George Washington
," "
Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai
" and "
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
" in the best film column.
"
You Can Count On Me
" will run in the categories for best first feature, screenplay, male lead (
Mark Ruffalo
), female lead (
Laura Linney
) and debut performance (Rory Culkin).
"
George Washington
" and "
Before Night Falls
" garnered four noms apiece.
The nominations were announced at the El Rey Theater in Los Angeles on Wednesday night. The winners will be announced March 24, a day before the Academy Awards, at a ceremony held at a large tent by the Santa Monica beach.
Here's a list of all the nominees.
