COMMENT: WHERE'S OPRAH?! NO OPRAH?! No Lee Daniel's The Butler? Strange... It's not I think The Butler deserves most of the Oscar buzz it has been getting (except Oprah, who deserves a nod), but I think most people were expecting that movie to get nominated in Best Motion Picture - Drama, Best Actor - Drama and Best Supporting Actress categories. No big surprises beyond having Greta Gerwig nominated for Frances Ha (I thought she was too indie for Globes), but the nominations list pleases me. Personally, I'm kinda sad for not seeing one of my favorite movies of the year nominated in any category, Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Don Jon, specially when both JGL and Scarlett were great and both would be attention magnets during the awards ceremony for sure. Julie Delpy is also getting some recognition for a performance that stills beautiful and a character that stills fascinating after so many years since the second movie of the Before franchise.

TOP 35 Actors and Actresses Under 35 Working Today - 2017

The almost annual TOP 35 Actors and Actresses Under 35 Working Today is out, with me considering the performers' performances of 2016 also. We have a few changes since last year's list, with Greta Gerwig toping the list thanks to her last 3 great performances in Mistress America , Maggie's Plan and the Oscar buzzy acting turn in 20th Century Women . Scarlett Johansson comes second with her latest distinguished performance being in 2014 ( Under the Skin ), but she managed to be at the spotligh this year thanks to her fine turns in critically acclaimed movies: Hail, Caesar! , Captain America: Civil War , The Jungle Book (voice) and Sing (voice). Emily Blunt adds another great performance to her resume in The Girl on the Train and she comes third, while Elle Fanning 's turning into one of the finest actresses and she's getting to play more adult and complex parts like The Neon Demon  and 20th Century Women 's (her two best performances since Super 8 ).

Academy Awards 2027 nominees predictions: all categories (2nd ROUND)

Now that the Fall film festival has passed, it's time to make some changes in the Oscar predictions charts: La bola negra is on a winning strike taking home the TIFF's People Choice Award; The movies I Play Rocky and Elsinore revealed themselves as huge crowd-pleasers and can be extremely viable Best Picture candidates; Neon's has found its big Oscar player (Luca Guadagnino's Artificial ) and Paper Tiger got more enthusiastic word from New York and London; the unexpected A24's documentary You Can See Everything is (currently) the most well-reviewed movie of the year and it's on track to become a truly unexpected box-office hit; Lee Chang-dong's Possible Love entered Best International Film race and it can have nice shots in screenplay and directing (according to reviews), suprassing the buzz of early favorites All of a Sudden and Fjord ; Digger is a bomb and not a promising Oscar vehicle; Sense and Sensibility is doing well with critics and it is project...
