The first major doc kudo of the winter awards season has gone tonight to Carl Deal and Tia Lessin's TROUBLE THE WATER. The Gotham Awards jury selected the Katrina doc over James Marsh's MAN ON WIRE and Werner Herzog's ENCOUNTERS AT THE END OF THE WORLD, both of which were nominated this morning for Independent Spirit Awards and will vie on Friday for the IDA Awards.
Update: The jury for the Gothams this year were filmmakers Barbara Kopple, Stanley Nelson, Terry Zwigoff, Peter Gilbert and Cynthia Wade.
