BEST ACTRESS
1. Julie Christie-Away From Her-She's legendary, she's got a boatload of precursors, she's critically acclaimed...she's just about locked and loaded.
2. Ellen Page-Juno-She's this year's breakthrough character actress. She'll have to settle for that. Unless there's some sort of upset...
3. Marion Cotillard-La Vie En Rose-Refreshing to see that a foreign actress can achieve lock status.
4. Angelina Jolie-A Mighty Heart-I'm not sure how she did it, but the buzz is back and it's golden. She's got everything ready to get a nod.
5. Cate Blanchett-Elizabeth: The Golden Age-To my surprise, it seems that her performance overpowered the film's awful reviews. Can you imagine what a lock she'd be if the film didn't suck?
