Golden Globe Nominees: Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama


My predictions: 5/5
Who’s missing? Melissa Leo (Frozen River)

Who will win? I’m always excited to get five for five in a major category (it happened several times this year!) and this is no exception. Kristin Scott Thomas managed to break the foreign language barrier (not a big surprise) and stay in the race. This is also good news for Angelina Jolie. I’ve seen all these performances, and this is quite a fine list. While I’d love to see Melissa Leo included, I think she may factor in with a surprise nomination at the Oscars, the only question is who she bumps (likely Thomas or Hathaway, or Winslet if there is backlash or she cancels herself out).

Who will win? I’m rooting for Anne Hathaway, but I’ll stick to one of these two right now: Meryl Streep or Kate Winslet, probably Streep.
