I haven\'t seen all of the movies nominated this year, but I will guess that the winner for Best Picture will be "No Country for Old Men" simply because of the praise in the press and from friends who have seen it. Personally, I haven\'t been excited about any of the blockbusters I\'ve seen this year. For Best Actor: Daniel Day-Lewis because he totally commits to his roles and you\'d never know he wasn\'t American in "There Will be Blood." Best Actress: Marion Cotillard for "La Vie en Rose." Her performance was so real and intense...her very physicality transformed! Can\'t commment on the other supporting roles as I haven\'t seen the films. I will guess Diablo Cody will win for Original Screenplay for "Juno," but I thought the dialogue was often unintelligible, over the top and devoid of emotions given the plot of the movie. Finally, if I ruled the world, I would nominate "Across the Universe" for best musical motion picture of the year! It really captured the essence of the 60\'s from the Beatles, to the Viet Nam War, to the passion for justice, acceptance and freedom of that generation.
