Go Rat!

And yeah, I think Langella can now officially be considered a legit contender.

So...have the two "frontrunners" for actor (DDL and Depp) received anything yet?


No, but there hasn't been much yet. Just NBR and Boston, not exactly the epitome of significance.

Peace,

Langella is also playing Nixon in Ron Howard's film Frost/Nixon due out next year.


And from early words and scenes, I'm going ahead to say he is THE frontrunner for the win next year.

Great for Langella. I was wondering if he had a shot at winning here, as it seemed like the kind of random win they like. Looks like he and Holbrook can be the "Veterans we've never recognized" nominees this year.

Loving this! So many unexpected but, by all accounts, choices that deserve to be pushed.

Well, they're showing much love for GBG, and it's Boston....so I think so.

Wouldn't that be almost TOO obvious hometown pride? At least The Departed n Mystic River were bigtime contenders. Also he won the "New Filmmaker" award already, so also giving him Director would be kinda rude-ish.

ETA: Nevermind. It appears they really liked Diving Bell, as Director and Picture match 2 out of 3 times with them.

I wonder if Janusz Kaminski could be the lone director nom at the Oscars this year. Kinda like Fernando Meirelles at the 2004 Oscars.

Sicko is not a good doc

Front Page says so.

The last time a Foreign Language Fim won Picture (Ran in 1985), they have out an award for "Best American Film." Maybe they'll do the same here for Diving Bell?

The Diving Bell has to win foreign, right? And maybe they announce it last because it's really their favorite film of the year.

I think if Diving Bell wasn't a lock for Foreign to them they would have given BP to it

Big winners here - Diving Bell and Langella. NCFOM and Ryan are also beginning to show signs of massive support. Ratatouille also had a nice notice that SOME people will take it seriously this awards season.
