[lbo-talk] Best actor?

[joanna]

Nominations for best actor are:
-Hoffman for Capote;
-Howard for Hustle and Flow;
-Ledger for Brokeback;
-Phoenix for Walk the Line; and
-Strathairn for Good Night and Good Luck

Writing off Phoenix (too bland) and Strathairn (too monotonous) leaves 
Hoffman, Howard, and Ledger. Ledger probably won't get it cause I think 
Brokeback will get it for direction & maybe picture.  Personally I think 
Howard did the best job and that H & F was one of the best movies of 
last year. But my sister says the fat white guy wins it for Capote. He 
was good. But the role was just not as complex as the H & F role?

Speculation? Bets? (And, yeah, I know this is trivial shit.)
