	The Skinny!
	best supporting actress: cate blanchett --- the academy "honors" katherine hepburn by picking blanchett's over the top portrayal of her. CORRECT!
	best supporting actor: alan alda --- the anti-howard hughes vote. Alda plays the senator who tormented the guy who bucked hollywood. WRONG!
	best actress: hilary swank --- take a cute actress and have her sweating and boxing in a movie: that's called A LOCK ! ! ! CORRECT!
	best actor: jamie foxx --- the academy always believes (wrongly) that it's hard to play blind or retarded characters. It's not. But that's my opinion. CORRECT!
	best director: clint eastwood --- two things I've learned: never bet on scorsese, and never bet against dirty harry. The academy makes clint's day. CORRECT!
	best picture: million dollar baby --- if eastwood can win for the formula western "unforgiven", he's gonna win with a formula boxing movie too. CORRECT!
