TTSS finally showed up in a guild. However, the battle is between Hugo and The Artist for period films though.

Big miss by War Horse.

Maybe the fact so much of War Horse is set outdoors hurt it here. (A stretch?) Versus, for example, the opulent Elizabethan castles and Globe Theatre in Anonymous.

I do hope this is in an indication Tinker, Tailor won't go entirely unnoticed by the Academy. Three or four technical nominations would be nice.

The winners are Hugo, Harry Potter, and Dragon Tattoo. Hugo should win the Oscar.
