The
Skinny! |
So many ways to go this year with Hollywood's
favorite subjects: Pro-homosexuality, anti-Catholicism, Nixon, and Nazis.
Man, it's a cornucopia! |
|
Sup
Actress: |
I think the two Doubt actresses cancel each other
out. Plus a Woody Allen flick is always a good springboard for supporting
actress. CORRECT! |
|
Sup
Actor: |
I really wanted to go with Michael Shannon (the
crazy guy in Revolutionary Road), but the Academy honors its dead in an
uninteresting movie. CORRECT! |
Actress: |
Angelina Jolie deserves it for her fantastic
performance in Changeling, but Winslet was really good in two movies, so the
nod goes to her. CORRECT! |
Actor: |
Again, my personal favorite would have been the
comeback performance by Rourke, but Hollywood can't help itself fawning over
nitwit Penn. CORRECT! |
Director: |
I'm going with the chalk: Danny Boyle directing
this year's Best Picture . . . CORRECT! |
|
|
|
|
|
Picture: |
Slumdog Millionaire, filmed in Mumbai, India
(that's Bombay to me). CORRECT! |
