Monday, February 27, 2012. The 2011 Knight Award Winners! Traditionally the Knight Award Winners are announced the day before the Oscars. Time simply got away from me this year. But I was determined to get them posted by the following day. To be honest, this was a tough year for me on deciding the ultimate winners. Best Picture and Best Director gave me the most trouble, as did a couple of the acting categories. What you will find below is as final of a decision as I can possibly make.
