 WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread You know what to do.
My questions:
Melanie Laurent (Inglourious Basterds) - Lead or Supporting (personally I'd say supporting)
Marion Cotillard (Nine) - Lead or Supporting (also Supporting, I'd say)

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread I'd say lead for Laurent, supporting for Kruger (if anyone decides to nominate her).
Also screenplays like In the Loop, Bright Star, District 9 - original or adapted?

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread No clue about In the Loop but Bright Star is adapted if you ask me. It is directly based on Keats' letters. District 9 is adapted.

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread I'm guessing In the Loop should stay adapted, since it's based off The Thick of It. Just checking.

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread I'd consider Laurent supporting, the only exception is if we also reclassify Christoph Waltz as lead (Cannes Film Festival).
Sam Worthington is considered lead in Terminator Salvation?
Zoe Saldana should be actress, not supporting actress in Avatar right?
And is Avatar eligible for Best Animated Feature?

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread The Nine actresses should be all supporting.
In the Loop is adapted.

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread Final verdict on Laurent?
I say supporting, though it's borderline.

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread Okay, final Basterds clarification then:
Waltz, Pitt and Laurent are ALL supporting.

ME AND ORSON WELLES
Lead: Zac Efron

THE ROAD
Supporting: Kodi Smit-McPhee (as Viggo's son)

Re: WOKJ MP Awards 2009 - Categories Clarifications Thread Ah, did they? Lame.  But all right. Sets a bad precedent, though. Why were Milk and The Aviator nominated for Best Original Screenplay? They were clearly adapted from Harvey Milk and Howard Hughes' lives! _________________1. The Lost City of Z - 2. A Cure for Wellness - 3. Phantom Thread - 4. T2 Trainspotting - 5. Detroit - 6.
