Continuing this year’s slightly different version of my Oscar preview we look at both lead acting categories and pick a head and a heart winner.
Lead Actor
Richard Jenkins in The Visitor
Frank Langella in Frost/Nixon
Sean Penn in Milk
Brad Pitt in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler
Heart and Head Pick: Mickey Rourke
Penn is the major threat here but I think the comeback story staring the comeback story wins here and it couldn’t happen to a more talented guy. Plus, he love’s dogs.
Lead Actress
Anne Hathaway in Rachel Getting Married
Angelina Jolie in Cahngeling
Melissa Leo in Frozen River
Meryl Streep in Doubt
Kate Winslet in The Reader
Heart and Head Pick: Kate Winslet
I’m a little worried that Streep will once again end Kate’s victory but like Gervais said the Oscar gold is in holocaust flicks. Hopefully we finally see Kate get the recognition for her body of work.
