| The Skinny! Where we dissect hollywood's view of america: gay cowboys, gay writers, transvestites, political witch hunts, and racial bigotry! | ||||||||||||
| best supporting actress: rachel weisz --- the early awards season has been kind to rachel in a fairly weak field this year. CORRECT! | ||||||||||||
| best supporting actor: paul giamatti --- making up for last year's snub (and don't forget american splendor), giamatti gets the nod in this overlooked gem. WRONG! | ||||||||||||
| best actress: reese witherspoon --- our girl reese is carrying the water for a severely dissed movie. Mark this as a STONE COLD LOCK ! ! ! CORRECT! | ||||||||||||
| best actor: philip seymour hoffman --- my heart is with joaquin, but my head tells me the academy has to honor hoffman's first big breakout role. CORRECT! | ||||||||||||
| best director: ang lee --- usually this award goes along with the best picture, which leads me to . . . CORRECT! | ||||||||||||
| best picture: brokeback mountain --- a movie about gay cowboys? Hollywood can't resist! This is the perfect storm to trash a symbol of american values. WRONG! | ||||||||||||
