"Mike Leigh's award-winning abortion drama 'Vera Drake' has scooped seven nominations at this year's British Independent Film Awards. But the Venice winner faces stiff competition from Shane Meadows' critically acclaimed 'Dead Man's Shoes,' which received eight nominations. Also in the running for a clutch of awards are 'My Summer of Love' and the stalker drama 'Enduring Love.' The winners will be announced at a ceremony in London on 30 November," BBC reports.
