It's the crusty old Academy. Kidman was astonishing in a truly astonishing film, "Birth." That film and its lead performance did not even register a blip of life on the Hollywood Heartbeat Monitor.

And I really doubt this will be seen as one suicidal artist too many seeing as 1) the film does not show her death(the film, from what I've heard, ends something like 10 years before Arbus' death and 2) if you have a suicidal artist role and the actor or actress gives that knockout performance, then nothing can go wrong IMO. If someone wants to use Paltrow as an example, the early word on Sylvia was never good to begin with while those who have seen Fur have used the word magical and amazing when they describe it. Nicole and Robert Downey is all I'm predicting it for right now, but I really think we should loook out for it.<BR/><BR/><BR/>I got a feeling that it's going to be a bigger contender then most think at the moment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-1153629725215191972006-07-23T00:42:00.000-04:002006-07-23T00:42:00.000-04:00I don't see Fur, Running With Scissors, The Queen,...I don't see <I>Fur</I>, <I>Running With Scissors</I>, <I>The Queen</I>, <I>Devil With Prada</I>, <I>Children of Men</I> or <I>Bug</I> getting multiple nominations outside of Best Actress.

(I for one had never even seen a picture of her before seeing her cameo) <BR/><BR/>The Queen seems to be dealing with recent events, featuring characters we all know very well. First of all this might make for a rather bland movie, trying to avoid too much controversy (judging by the plot summary on imdb, it could be controversial, at least in the uk). Furthermore everyone will incessantly be comparing the performance with the real Elizabeth II, and nly the slightest inconsistency might hurt Mirren's chances.<BR/><BR/>If the movie is a hit though, this could just point to a make up-nomination as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-1153578724833495412006-07-22T10:32:00.000-04:002006-07-22T10:32:00.000-04:00Well, Streep got nommed for playing Roberta Guspar...Well, Streep got nommed for playing Roberta Guspari, who was real even if she wasn't famous.
