Wow, that's an even bigger surprise than adapted screenplay. Neither The White Ribbon nor A Prophet won.


At this point, in terms of the Foreign Language category, the frontrunner winning would be surprising. :P They always seem to choose a lesser-known title which hasn't been nearly as acclaimed or seen abroad.

The screening attendance requirement really makes the category unpredictable. First it reduces the number of total votes drastically, and then the more emotional films tend to have an advantage under that setting.

I won't cry if it wins. Academy gave BP to Crash, remember? They really can't sunk any lower. Though THL is near. I'll cry if it loses. :thumbsup:

I have seen it and really liked it. Still when looking for best entertainer I would say Avatar and IB are way ahead of it. For Sound Mixing and Sound Editing it should have had a tough time getting nominations and here it is winning them both. :disgust:

There's no award for "best entertainer," though.

Pfeiffer - nice dress
Farmiga - ugly dress
Farrell - looking weird
Robbins - same ole self
Moore - decent dress

The performance of a lifetime was the Dude..."hey"
I forgot Clooney was nominated as a director.

So why don't they do this for the supporting performances?

I know it won't happen, but an upset here would be so interesting. Renner or Clooney seem vaguely possible.
