 Re: 13th WOKJ Motion Picture Awards - Categories clarificati
Not sure there any major clarifications needed this year. I could come up with a few (does The Handmaiden have three leads [two female, one male]? are both men in Swiss Army Man lead or just Paul Dano?), but they are definitely on the periphery.

I'd consider Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe both leads in Swiss Army Man.

There is definitely the case of Viola Davis and Fences and I say she is Lead.
Also, Eye in the Sky - I'd say Helen Mirren is Lead as well.

I would say both are supporting.

Can't you have a female lead and a male lead?

Um, yes, of course you can. Fences has both. Why?

 Re: 13th WOKJ Motion Picture Awards - Categories clarificati
Wording made me think otherwise. The lead and "a lead". No worries

 Re: 13th WOKJ Motion Picture Awards - Categories clarificati
I can see the argument either way for Viola Davis, tbh. Unlike the Vikander/Mara combo from last year, Viola can at least have an argument for supporting since she's off screen for decent stretches of time.

Moonlight original or adapted? Same for Loving. I'd say both are adapted.

Start a Fire and A Lovely Night sure aren't worth nominating. So you have to pick from at least one other place.

Lecter, we don't have to have seen the film to nominate original songs, right?

Also, Viola Davis in Fences IS Lead. Just so you all know.

Lucy Boynton, Sing Street
Lead Actress or Supporting Actress? Currently have her in the latter, but unsure..

 Re: 13th WOKJ Motion Picture Awards - Categories clarificati
Does it have to be so stringent of a ruling? Can't we just decide ourselves if she is lead or supporting?

Sure, but just like with the Academy, confusion like this splits votes and costs the nomination.
