Oscar Nominees: Best Documentary


The nominees:
NO END IN SIGHT
OPERATION HOMECOMING
SICKO
TAXI TO THE DARK SIDE
WAR/DANCE


My ballot: I have only seen the nominated documentaries and “Darfur Now”, but I really like these five and feel that they are all deserving of their nominations, and would likely add them to my own list if I made one.
Who should win: Again, they are all great, but “Sicko” stands out as the most well-made and captivating film.
Who will win: Michael Moore should take home his second Oscar for the appealing Sicko, though I suspect that all the politically-driven nominees may appear on stage just as the nominees in this category did the last time Moore won in 2002.
