It has historical elements (like every good film he's done) and tragic love story (like Shadowlands). Plus every interview Dickie's been doing recently he's been bigging up Mischa - saying she's the best young actress he's ever worked with and that we'll be seeing her at next years BAFTA's.<BR/><BR/>Might be all talk though, but certainly one to keep an eye on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-8738698382511599892007-03-11T21:38:00.000-04:002007-03-11T21:38:00.000-04:00BEELZEBUB,SHE WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED?!LOLLove the n...BEELZEBUB,<BR/>SHE WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED?!<BR/><BR/>LOL<BR/>Love the nicknames.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-30654431571820147292007-03-11T19:19:00.000-04:002007-03-11T19:19:00.000-04:00Irina Palm is not quite as dirty as it sounds. it´...Irina Palm is not quite as dirty as it sounds. it´s a bit like one of those Brit films like Calendar Girls or The fully Monty. you don´t get to see anything, it´s all about imagination. the role is quite conventional, but she is still great in it...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-89810814341940694022007-03-11T18:11:00.000-04:002007-03-11T18:11:00.000-04:00page has been updated with more candidates.page has been updated with more candidates.NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-7084694412063849982007-03-11T15:35:00.000-04:002007-03-11T15:35:00.000-04:00Julie Taymor directed Best Actress Nominee Salma H...Julie Taymor directed Best Actress Nominee Salma Hayek in Frida.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-39718876740785357812007-03-11T14:27:00.000-04:002007-03-11T14:27:00.000-04:00thanks, Frank for sharing your views of Meryl's ca...thanks, Frank for sharing your views of Meryl's categories for this year;s movies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-6687053732825672462007-03-11T13:07:00.000-04:002007-03-11T13:07:00.000-04:00I think Meryl Streep is Support in Dark Matter.Dir...I think Meryl Streep is Support in Dark Matter.<BR/><BR/>Dirty Tricks comes in 2008.<BR/><BR/>I think Meryl has this Year the Best Chances as Lead Actress in Lion for Lambs and as Supporting Actress in Dark Matter.<BR/><BR/>Other Films<BR/><BR/>in Rendition as Supporting Actress and in Evening as Supporting Actress.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-23480375223651306972007-03-11T12:29:00.000-04:002007-03-11T12:29:00.000-04:00Oh, Nat, guess what I just found out?Film Bitch Go...Oh, Nat, guess what I just found out?<BR/><BR/>Film Bitch Gold Medalist Ziyi Zhang.

Agreed with goran that I doubt it will tickle Oscar's (or America's) fancy. It was my #1 film of 2006 and thought it was sort of magnificently stunning (almost on par with <I>Lantana</I>, but if you have to be compared to a movie, <I>Lantana</I> is a tough one to beat). I'd nominate Linney for the "sick" scene alone. "People don't make themselves sick. It's something that happens to you. Something <B>bad</B>." *<I>melts</I>* so good.<BR/><BR/>Sean, Collette is probably going to be supporting for <I>Esther Blueburger</I> (I think Keisha Castle-Hughes is lead), but, it's also a movie aimed at a younger audience and it's Australian so I doubt it'll even get a release in America.<BR/><BR/>For <I>The Other Boleyn Girl</I> I really think it will be Portman Lead/Johansson Supporting. Just makes sense. BTW, <I>Boleyn</I> is written by the same guy who wrote <I>The Queen</I> and <I>The Last King of Scotland</I>. Another nom on it's way for a Peter Morgan-written film?<BR/><BR/>And, yeah, Julie Taymor lead Salma Heyak (who's now preggers!!) to a nod for <I>Frida</I>.<BR/><BR/>On the Helen Hunt thing, I'm actually predicting atm a nod for Bette Midler in the supporting category. I figure that makes as much sense as many others. She apparently has a juicy mother role.Glenn Dunkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05424659636310160482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-69602922038824914462007-03-10T21:41:00.000-05:002007-03-10T21:41:00.000-05:00I strongly believe that I'm more excited than the ...I strongly believe that I'm more excited than the rest of the world put together to see Parker Jesus Posey taker a lead(!) role in a new Hal Hartley(!) movie that got decent word-of-mouth(!!!!) around festivals. Plus, Fay Grim in Henry Fool already counts as one of my favourite Parker Posey performances.<BR/><BR/>Also, I got to see Laura Linney in Jindabyne - it's an excellent (but not all that showy) performance in a solid (but flawed and not all that striking) movie. Unless Australiana magically translates into the kind of exoticism that sells tickets in the US, I can't imagine that the movie will register much come awards time. (Even in Australia where the director Ray Lawrence is God, the reception was quite warm but with some reservations. Despite pedigree, it hardly got any awards in a much more limited field.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-33739177876505401392007-03-10T20:23:00.000-05:002007-03-10T20:23:00.000-05:00It'd be great if Marianne Faithfull would get nomi...It'd be great if Marianne Faithfull would get nominated, but the Academy would never have the balls to nominate that role.
